Rick Murchison:
What do you mean, "contaminated?" Usually that word means the gas in the tank has contaminants like oil or carbon or carbon monoxide or CO2 in it from a compressor or compressor intake problem. This has nothing to do with a visual inspection, as it can occur on any given fill.
If by "completely contaminated" you mean "badly corroded," then most likely salt water was introduced into the tank by bad fill procedures, and that can happen a lot faster than a whole year... so again, the visual inspection is no guarantee against poor practices at the fill station.

Also, I only get my tanks filled at two different places, both of which are clean, and change filters on a regular basis. Another point too, is that the o rings inside the valve were completely crushed, suggesting that they were not checked...

Plus, it wasn't the place that I got the one fill, as I only had one tank filled there, and both were contaminated...
 
Sounds a lot like nitrogen narcosis - and basically the same thing that happens to me when intoxicated...i'm completely conscious but lose my eyesight until sitting down and just drinking water.

seek medical - and please do find a new buddy!

i saw all that today... minus the cuttlefish...


oh! and 5 mantas...

:D

5 mantas?? For real?? Maybe this is the same group some guys spotted in Basura! I gotta catch a glimpse of that school before they leave....

OT: just like the stingrays who live in the cavern of Bahura, I hear they're gone now.
