William, Like said, I don't gas blend. I know about the hydrocarbons (sp?) and all, I just don't know what the shops do when they clean a cylinder. I didn't know a precursor to doing decompression diving was knowing what substances are used in the O2 cleaning process. I've never gas blended before or do I intend to in the future. I'll stick to determining my mixture and analyzing it to ensure it's what I ordered. Safe diving, Art. art.paltz@r2*.co* Last Dive 8/15/97, Texas Tower, NJ, 181ft/45 min bottom, 80 min deco, 58 degrees F, 21% bottom mix, 50% deco. -----Original Message----- From: william Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 1997 12:17 AM To: Paltz, Art Cc: techdiver@aquanaut.com Subject: Re: O2 Cleaning B.S.
