See Eric maiken on this for the better explanation, but the model treats a
slow ascent near the level of the profile like bottom time. This may also be a
rusult of padding added by the manufacturer (the true weenies). You , the buyer
are not a stoke or a weenie, just a sucker, as we say over here (there is one
born every two minutes according to PT Barnum, and the dive manufactueres
understand this all too well).
Put another way, there is more to deco than Buhlman or any other single
theory, but they are all very good at getting you out of short exposures
without
problems. For long exposures, things get tricky. It is more likely that you
need
no deco for weenie dives in the first place.
Let me ask you this. You all saw Steve Irving's post about computers. You
all own one or we would not be on the Net. For $69 you can buy DECOM. Why would
any of you spend hundreds of dollars for a wrist computer? I don't get it. -G
