I wasn't talking about the 'breather.  When doing OC trimix, my deco gas 
wasd on my back (so was my bottom mix, but that's a separate issue). 
During our first trimix dives, we had doubles with nitrox, and a single 
of trimix.  That worked fine - the only reason I ended up switching to my 
present OC system is that I could fit more gas in a better-balanced package.
