Subject: RE: Gas with Air Repet

	In previous;

	You hope he means dissolved gas?

	Don't bet on it - more and more people are wondering about the
behaviour of bubbles after diving. It is generally accepted that you can
demonstrate the presence of bubbles after any air dive. I see no reason
why He should behave any differently to N in this matter.

	The bubbles are assumed to slow down degassing, and their rate
of removal is 'upo for grabs' I understand. Also, the behaviour of
bubbles when recompressed isn't as accepted as the behaviour of
dissolving gases.

	i.e. how fast do they re-solubilise? rate of coalescence?
location of bubbles? rate of movement through the body?

	If the tables/algorhythms can keep that gas in solution then
fine - but once the bubbles are there (like for any repeat diving) I'd
like to know that my deco scheduling takes account of them.

	Yours,

	Jason.
