VERY well said!  Is everybody listening?  This is one of those
rare gems among the muck.  It's important that everyone - including the 
folks who automatically delete G's messages - get this point.  The right 
deco shape (i.e. slow deep ascents and/or deep stops) will probably allow 
you to get out of the water with LESS deco time *and* a LOWER probability 
of DCS.  Eventually the math models (and one hopes, the computers and 
software) will catch on to this.

Aloha,
Rich
