Subject: Re: Q.T. on the U.T. Rebreather - Fraud by any other name


Hi Tom,

Thanks for the last message.  I'm not sure why you addressed it to me,
though - my only contribution to this thread was to comment that I didn't
consider computers on closed circuit rebreathers to be "life support
equipment".

I thought it would be on the market by now as well. As you know, I've
bought serial number one, so I will be the first to know when it is
available. Last I heard, they will have it at the rebreather forum in CA
next month.  Bill Stone told me a couple of days ago that he is much less
concerned with beating the competition out of the starting gate than he is
with making absolutely certain that the design is sound and adequately
tested. It seems to me he's interested in long-term survivorship of the
company (which means long-term survivorship of the people who buy the
things), moreso than being the first on the block with a product. You'll 
have to ask Nordstrom when delivery date is scheduled.

Aloha,
Rich
