just got home from the rebreather forum in key west (an hour ago
hawaii time)  i saw what is, in my opinion, the most awsome full
face mask "system"...  i say system because the mask is modular
AND can be retrofitted with a very simple and efficient on\off
valve for your future rebreather hoses.  The mask was very
comfortable and light, but looked really durable..  the price
was the part that really suprised me.  It's made by a company
call Divematics i think, designed by the infamous Tracy Robbinet
(hope i spelled that correctly), he designed the Shadow rebreather
many years ago.  If you want more info email me and i'll look up
my notes.

will post other items about the forum when i get time.. rich 
and john will as well..

aloha,

dennis
