    scopolomine patch washes off

    http://www.motionsickness.net/ Try Scopace and see if it works for you. I personally have never had any issues with Transderm Scop. Scopace makes me feel weird 30 minutes after taking it and it lasts for about 15 minutes.

    Deco without C-card

    There are no regulations. It's all up to each operator. I've been asked to show my trimix card in the past.

    Diving and alcohol

    You shouldn't mix alcohol and motion sickness medication if you take any. Remember meclizine HCl (a.k.a. Bonine) is good for up to 24 hours. Alcohol leads to dehydration so it probably isn't a good idea after diving in terms of DCS but I don't know how much study has been done on it. It's not...

    Visiting in mid-Jan, 07

    Thanks. I'm hoping to do shore diving in Oahu on Sat. Jan. 20 and I'd like to join if any of you are going on that day. I know it's more than a month away but I thought I'd post anyway. Please let me know if you are.

    Avalon Harbor UW Cleanup 2/24/07

    I know this is off topic but still CCD related.... When is the next research diver training? They are still advertising Fall 2005 session on their web site.

    Visiting in mid-Jan, 07

    Folks, I'll be in Oahu in mid-Jan. and am looking for some input. I've never dove out there and am looking for any advice, suggestions, etc. I'm still in the planning phase and open to anything including island hopping. From what I've gathered, I guess 5mm full suit is about what I need...

    Ice diving...in wetsuits????

    I've seen people ice diving wet. The trick is to have someone dump warm water in your suit right before going in. I've only gone under ice dry so I don't know how well it works.

    Sport Chalet and Nitrox ????

    Resort DMs dive on air because they might have to chase those who go deeper than they are supposed to.

    Tec Training in O.C.?

    I'm one of those who don't agree with some of the stuff he does but many of us can only dream of some of the dives he's done. I'd also recommend Peter Den Haan among other names mentioned but the dude specifically asked for one in OC. Too bad Johnny Walker ain't teaching anymore.

    Tec Training in O.C.?

    I second Jeff Bozanic. While there are people who don't agree with his style of diving (you can't please everybody anyway), there aren't many who have done as much as he has. Just google him, his resume is quite impressive. I wouldn't bother too much with DSAT but that's just me.

    What sort of buoyancy changes are you talking about with crushed neoprene?

    Quick tank question.

    You really should be trained first before buying any piece of equipment. You don't buy a car before getting a license, right?

    Catalina U/W park dive report.

    Add Psalty V, Second Stage, Pacific Star and Lois Ann to the list. I guess nitrox is far more interesting to talk about than the service in Avalon.

    Lung Training Devices

    You mean something like http://www.expand-a-lung.com/ You can't increase your lung volume. It grows to the maximum volume before you even become a teenager. A gimmick like that works on respiratory muscles but it wouldn't help anything because they have nothing to do with the gas exchange...

    Dry Gloves Pros? Cons?

    I agree, it doesn't bother me to about 100' or so. I use something to equalize my gloves only for deep trimix dives.

    Atomic M1 First Stage Question

    Yes, it is a legitimate statement. It's called Christo Lube. B2's don't come environmentally sealed so you wouldn't see it unless you get yours sealed.
