	Very nice, and nicely put.

	As far as cave-diving kit goes... NOTE: I AM NOT A CAVER, AND I 
KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CAVING,... but today, I saw something interesting:
It is a small, back-mounted BC, maybe 6 to 10 litres (say max 20lbs) 
lift. When I asked the guy in the shop he said it was intended for cave 
diving, with side-mounted tanks...(keep your flames doused, please).
	I've been thinking more and more about doing a caving course, 
even if only for the skills involved, so I just wondered how a BC like 
this strikes people with caving experience.
