I've seen the light! I'm going to run out and sell my AUL right now and buy one of Ed Paradiso's Neutralight copies. You know, the ones with the really good head on it, and the major "improvements" he's done (such as making it out of black plastic rather then brown). Yes. I'll get one of these. Stick it on my big butt. Then I'll carry 5 gap reels with me on every dive in case I find some jumps. But I'll only carry three clothespins. I'll have to put the gap reels on D-Rings on my tanks however so that I can't get to them when I need to, and the line will be sure to get tangled in them. Then I'll also bring a pouch filled with wrenches, socket drivers, and miscellaneous other tools. Then I'll also bungee my long hose to one side of my tanks, and a spanner wrench on the other side (never know when you'll need to rebuild that manifold in the cave). Oh screw the spanner wrench, I'll just dive independants so I won't need to worry about it. However, I'll need to put a long hose on each regulator. Wait, I know. I'll put y-valves on the independents and 2 first stages on each one. That way I'll always be able to get to all of my air. I'll use sherwood brutes as the long hoses so I can save some money. I mean, I'm not breathing off those regs, so why should >> I << care what quality they are. When my buddy needs air, he should just be happy to have the brute. Of course, I'll need to buy Poseidon Odin's (jetstreams) for my short hose. I mean, if it's the regulator >> I'm << breathing I want it to be the best quality regulator I can find. And I'll wear two sets of wings so in case one explodes I'll be able to get out alive. You know, I should also switch to Genesis 120's because they provide 120ft3 of air at 3500psi. So what if they're positive when empty. With all this other crap on me, I'll be sure to sink. Sound like I'm exagerating? -- ================================================================== Ken Sallot "Your trim goes to hell when you run out of air" afn35346@af*.or* - Jim Wei http://grove.ufl.edu/~ken/
