If you don't mind my asking, would someone please explain to me what 
the following courses teach?

"Extended Range Diver"

"Technical Diver"

I'm just really curious about this since I've seen them mentioned a 
couple of times recently and have no idea what they're for (except to 
take a chunk out of your wallet, but I may be missing something).

Thanks,

Ken

ps - Tony, on the light, suggestion, don't use a square cannister, 
it's not an ideal pressure vessel, otherwise there'd be square 
submarines. Dive Rite is supposedly going to have a cylindrical 
cannister soon, and AUL (American Underwater Lighting) already has 
one that's been proven.
