Having worked as a consultant with many ceo's and executives of very large
to medium sized businesses (some of which were actually succesful companies,
my specialty was in issues realating to downsizing), I did not know of many
ceo's outside of the information technology industry who regularly used
e-mail as a means of communication inspite of perhaps having an e-mail
address which was responded to by staff members.   So whether Bret has
e-mail or not, so what.  Neither does most of the world or many of the most
experienced and talented divers I have met.  

On ppO2's, however,  I believe that the non-fatal O2 tox incident on the
Lucy last year the diver did not violate either his CNS clock or a max ppO2
on either the dive or the deco of 1.6 (some of the Brits can confirm this).
I also believe that there was an incident a few years ago at Devil's Ear
that was fatal and in which the diver did not exceed a ppO2 of 1.6 or his
CNS clock (George, Tom or definitely JJ can confrim this).  Despite Bret's
significantly greater experience and perhaps knowledge, I prefer setting my
limits at a more conservative 1.4 or lower depending on conditions.  

my $0.02, John
