JJ tells it pretty well in this article he wrote on it. It's one of the articles I read originally. I'll have to look for the other ones I found, but there are more out there.
I am perfectly aware he is talking about tha caving community, but he is also giving a good overview of Hogarthian thinking. ALSO, notice he is talking about Hogarthian and does not mention DIR.
There is comments about the light cannister, 7' hose and placement and some basic comments on SPG, gauges and placement. The pictures on the first page gives a good referance point for gear.

PS,
Oh yeah,
If nobody can agree on what it is, why bother having a forum to discuss it? We have to have some basis of what it is to be able to discuss it, or don't we?????
I then propose a new system, the "big honkin suckerfish method". Talk amongst yourselfs I'm a little vaclempt, this is just butter...... I'm off to the moon, Peace.
