Do you search before posting a 'new' question?

So search for the old topic and respond to it, even ask if anyone's opinion has changed. That way everything is in one place. The next time someone wants to know and they won't have to go through 5 identical threads to find their answer they do one search and find one thread with a history of updated information.

Searching through old posts has been very much a learning experience, but I would not hesitate to ask a same question again, even if it had already been discussed ad nauseum, just in case someone came up with a better way or product since the last time a certain topic was discussed.

I would like to think that we divers who use life support equipment in our endeavours are constantly upgrading our way of doing things and kit. In doing so, we may arrive at something that resembles a common standard. It might even look like DIR...

:wow:
