What happens when one of these drain ports falls off the goddamn rebreather when you're 7000' back, in a restriction? You're fucked, plain and simple. It's clear from this one episode alone that the toy you have isn't ready for prime time, hell, I wouldn't even call it ready for clinical testing on a rat because rats deserve better. For you to use Pyle and his buddy as guinea pigs is unconscionable. > > In the future, why don't you fellows ask appropriate questions, as > > opposed to gloating over hyperbolic extrapolations of data you do > > not possess? Here's a question that you should be able to answer. What deco algorithms are in your computer? Who designed them, who implemented them and what type of quality assurance process have they gone through. Being somewhat of an expert in some of these fields I would really like to hear what you've done to allow people to put their lives in your computers hands. Since I'm in the market for a rebreather in the next 12 months, in fact, it may be more like 6 of them, your answers will be a critical part of my decision making process. <K> _____________________________________________________________________ Sent by RocketMail.
