My name is Oliver Edwards. I've been lurking on this list for a month now
and have seen several thought provoking items. For example: mild excercise
during decompression,  cumulative O2 toxicity, danger of losing the anchor
line during wreak dives. By the way, I felt the recent "Wreak Diving Help"
thread was excellent.

I'm a NAUI ADV certified diver with 3 active years experiance and 130
logged dives. I do most of my diving off of N California coast although I
have been able to travel to several warm water destinations.

I'm becoming more interested in technical subjects of diving as time goes
on. In particular, I'd like to learn more about techniques for deep diving,
wreak penatration, and self sufficiency.

Can someone suggest where I can find information about technical diving
training? I get the impression that the nitrox courses cover a lot of
information that one would want to know, even if thier not using EAN. How
do the several NITROX certifying agencies compare? The only technical
diving courses I'm familure with now are nitrox and cave diving. Are there
others? Are there certifying agencies that sponsor those courses?

Later this year I'm going to be diving in Florida. Are there some good deep
diving and/or wreak penatration courses taught in the Keys? Is anyone
familure with courses taught by Key West divers?

Thanks in advance for the guidance.


Oliver
