You know guys that this is the reason why there is a little tube that 
extends into the tank, this is to make sure that the diver does not 
breathe whatever CO2 might have accumulated in the tank, which, since 
it is heavier than air, will settle at the lowest point in the 
tank... ;> ;> ;> ;> ;>

HAL, now that you just said "Hello world" (happy birthay, HAL!), remember
that you should never say: "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that",
for those words will bring uncomputable doom upon yourself...
