I think it's a good idea to have separate discussion areas for rec vs tech.

1) Different audience
2) Different goals

When ya make a post, it's good to have a basic idea of the audience you're speaking to. For example, a discussion on nitrox in a rec section might focus more on bottom time extensions and MODS, while in a tech section it might focus more on it's usefulness in reducing hangs at deco stops.

Same gas... different audience... different goals....

Separate areas shouldn't imply exclusion, but rather focused attention toward topical purpose.

It is a graet place for info for tech and want-to-be tech divers. An issue where good info is essential and experience is hard to come by.

wannabe's (or "will be's")..... yes, it's good to be able to research different areas of diving that we may not currently be involved with and determine that area's applicability to our own diving goals...
