      I have a couple of questions that have been floating around my
head for a while - finally gotten some keyboard time to ask them.

1.    When WKPP stage safety bottles, are they pulled every dive or
pulled back to a holding area?. Also what kind of time period underwater
would they be left before they were considered not usable without
draining and refilling?

2.    I guess I probably know the answer to this, but here goes - Do you
ever dive without a scooter (cave or wreck)?. If so how does this affect
the way you carry stage bottles? (do they still remain on the right hand
side of the diver).

3.     We have tried running 2 litre (16 cu ft) argon cylinder on the
right hand side (not strictly hogartian?) - comments?.

4.     WKPP team members are well dived as a team, do you find that hte
need for signals is reduced because of this?. Do you have specific
signals ()hand or light) developed by this 'team' approach i.e 'Turn the
dive' or 'speed up'.

Regards

Chris
