I think Dow Corning Molykote 111 is the advised lubricant for scuba applications. Vaseline might eat away any latex.

I get that, but the reference to degradation of latex is still applicable.

As a reference, a local shop just advertised a part time regulator tech (and general sales/floor) position for $15/hour, IIRC, free training (up to DM), equipment discounts, and, get this, discounts on equipment service....

Again, as stated earlier, pay is different than charges.... You don't keep the lights on if it isn't....

For a 1st and 2 Hi Perf 2nd stages I pay 210.00. That entails complete tear down, clean, reassemble and test/adjust....but only every 2 years. I get about 50-75 dives a year.

So the guy, diving mystery Faber bottles goes out with regs that haven't been serviced in the last year, runs out of air, loses one of his split fins and can't figure out his dive buddy's Air2 setup, drops his BFK while trying to rob his dive buddy of HIS tanks at knife point, almost drownds, gets saved by a voluptuous water nymph and lives happily ever after?

I think you forgot the part in middle with the underwater fistfight over primary versus secondary donate, other than that, well summarized.
