For that, nothing beats a chamber dive.
What? Too expensive?
Can't clubs (or shops) get together and arrange "charity" sponsor runs,
or whatever at dive fairs?
I'm sure that the hospitals-with-chambers foundations would be glad to
organize something like a "march-of-narcs" as a fundraiser, and give to
the public at large a chamber ride with a big wad of bubble gum for,
say, $20 a head.
Come to think of it, don't use bubble gum, but "ordinary" gum, as the
expanding bubbles (when the pressure is released) are bound to make an
awful mess...
