MSMAIL%"HeimannJ@WL* SCSD"%GTEC3.dnet@gt*.co* writes about the concerns
of vomiting in a full face mask.  I've never tried one, but I have wathched
someone chunder into an Aga on the deco bars once.  It sure looked like it
was going to fill his mask, but he whipped it off straight away, grabbed
an octopus reg and pulled a small mask out of his pocket.

I would be surprised, though, if there was not a technique for clearing
a mask like this of vomit.  Any comments from the Aga users out there?

If you're going to try one of these masks, I'd recommend that you carry
a spare mask (if you don't already as a matter of course), and make sure
you have another second stage to use if the reg is integrated into the
face mask.
