Question, folks:

I've seen several references to diving to 200', some to 300', and some to
400'+ - what is the deepest that 'technical' diving is done to with some level
of normalcy.

Can one dive to 500' for 20 minutes on mix?  How long and how much decom. time
w/ such a dive?  I read the account of the guy (Sheckley?) who tried to make
1000'.

I'm just curious, what depths are considered easily obtainable.  Are 300'
wreck penetrations doable? 400'? 500'?

Curious.  Also, I'm interested in hearing about the deeper dives that members
have made, rigs they've used, gases, and where in the heck they got the 
decom. tables for the dives.

Later!
