Other than photo ops or an OOA situation my reg stays in my mouth!!!

Beer, soda etc. has C02 in solution due to pressure, much like bends in divers,
when the pressure is reduced the C02 comes out of solution and forms bubbles.

I'm no scientist, but if I'm at 1 atmosphere and open a beer I have bubbles that
come out of solution, 2 atmospheres the bubbles still come out of solution but
at 1/2 their size. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe the inverse
would be true on opening a beer at depth, the pressure would impede the explosive
growth of the bubbles.

I'll bring the Beer!!! Hey we may have our own TV show, Underwater MythBusters!!!
 
GUYS, GUYS!! What are you two thinking? Don't waste a beer, stop by the gas station and buy a soda and try it with that. For the most part it should give you the same effect.
I leave you guys alone for one week and you are already wasting good beer.
 
Ok, Ok, so we use the light beer, I never said we were going to use good stuff!
 
Lmao.. you guys crack me up. :jester:
 
IDEA!!! Raid the case that is in the rafters of the NH shelter.
David, if you think this is fun you should see us together in person.

Got bad news at work today. Saturdays aren't going to be free for most of the summer. Of course it doesn't mean that I can't take a day off. It would make more sense to take a week day off instead of an OT day, but you never know.
 
Hey don't waste good beer or good coke. Stop by walmart and get sam's coke and el cheapo beer.
