I'm disappointed to hear bad things about the Nitrox Nemesis; I was seriously
thinking of upgrading to it. I am pleased with my Nemesis so far, but I
haven't put it into long decompression.
	As I recall from my manual, it states pretty clearly when it will go
into gauge mode. Although I wish it never would, I seem to remember that you
had to push it pretty far, and pushing it to require a 40 foot stop is getting
there; that's the deepest stop it calculates.
	Anyway, I have talked to several people at Cochran, and I've found
them to be open to ideas. I like the Nemesis a lot, and its computer interface
has a lot, if not the most, user-controllable parameters I've seen. They might
be able to work with us to fix these problems, or at least provide a good
excuse. Scott, I'd like more details on what happened to you so I can avoid
it (offline to save bandwidth?), and I'd encourage you to call Cochran.
	I'm wishing I  checked into Orcas more, but I did have a US divers
Scan 4 for a little while; won it in a raffle and traded it in for some DIN
valves. This thing went into gauge mode when it got wet. I never wanted to
dive with it at all.
