If your posts are of RECREATIONAL *********** *********** diving nature, please don't post them publicly *********** *********** here, but contact someone by their direct *********** *********** e-mail address. If you have technical *********** *********** questions, then this is the perfect place to *********** *********** ask them. *********** *********** Please understand, as was written in your *********** *********** subscription reply, that this forum is NOT a *********** *********** substitute for proper training, and advice and *********** *********** ideas presented here MAY OR MAY NOT BE both *********** *********** safe, or accurate. ALL advice given is simply *********** *********** an opinion, which if used, could cause injury. *********** *********** *********** *********** Technical diving is a demanding area...it *********** *********** requires commitment, knowledge, equipment, *********** *********** health, and mental attitude that are much *********** *********** greater than recreation diving requires.

Advice for you would be to begin by *********** *********** taking a NITROX course. This will show you *********** *********** some of the advanced understanding that is *********** *********** required of technical diving. Be assured, it *********** *********** gets even harder from there. *********** *********** *********** *********** If you are one of the many who wish only for *********** *********** recreational diving, check out the many SCUBA *********** *********** forums for recreational divers, such as *********** *********** rec.scuba. There is much for you there. *********** *********** *********** *********** Dive Safe......Dive Often....Dive Responsibly *********** *********** *********** *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** So, do you think that maybe this is needed up once each 2 wks or so?
