No. I keep my PO2 at 1.4 for the whole dive, which is a greater O2 exposure than most OC divers get. I don't have time to cover the entire rationale for why I don't bother calculating CNS% clocks, but suffice it to say that, if you understand how far-off deco schedules are from physiological reality, I am convinced that the CNS% concept is about 100-fold further off. I don't disagree with the practice for training agencies - it only adds another level of conservatism. But in a system where chaos is the rule, I prefer to keep my oversimplifications to a minimum.
