So how do you dive, you just stay underwater until you run out of air?

Oh, yeah, sure. I'm sure that no one on TechDiver has the slightest 
interest in how the tables and algorithms which they risk their fucking 
lives on everytime they dive are developed. You're right, who cares?

I freaking care, that's who! When I decided that I was going to start 
decompression diving, I read everything I could get my hands on. I want 
to know what is going on in my body when it is exposed to high partial 
pressures. You would have to be nuts not to.

But your philosophy of ignorance is bliss does have it's advantages, I 
suppose. So how does it feel to be so blissful all the time?
