Cool. I'd never heard of "Couldn't be sure I was bent until I got underwater again. The navy calls it trial by pressure." Interesting concept. Makes sense for one dive, but wouldn't repeated diving after establishing the temporary improvement at depth be obviously adding to the problem? If the bubbles are there, it'd add more to them would it not?I think what Jeff was probably trying to say in his usual minimalist way was that when doing agressive tech dives, minor DCS hits go with the territory and when divers who don't dive like that pass judgement on us for our actions it tends to get our backs up a little. I chose to post this question here to get a broader spectrum of replies than I might get from other more technically oriented forums. So thank you for your thoughts.
Not criticizing your choices, just asking for your opinion. After traveling that far to dive from that liveaboard, it'd take a lot to stop me and I am sure your training and experiences farrrr outdistance what I'll ever do.
