Ok, here's my 2 cents.
I learned about partial pressures, Boyle's, Henry's, Dalton's all that in my very first OW class
I learned how to read and calculate tables in the same class... AND, use them for every dive entered into my log book, EVEN though I also use a computer.
Oops, forgot OW certification was a requirement to take the Nitrox class... silly me...

Knowing partial pressures, Boyle's, Henry's, Dalton's, how to read and calculate dive tables from my first OW class....
Should I have to learn them all over again? Or, better yet, should I have to listen to someone walk through a friggin dive plan I could do in my head?

After reading all of these posts, and knowing I will be sitting in on Pete's class Tuesday, I am NOW leaning toward this method of teaching Nitrox over all the other methods.
Want to learn more about Nitrox... take an advanced course...
Want to learn what to do and how to do it safely.... take the Nitrox class with required OW cert prior to enrollment.

Pete,
This is starting to make better sense to me. I REALLY look forward to sitting in on your class now.
