Ted - What is the liability in topping of a trimix?  Is someone going to
accidentally grab my 100lb set of twins and accidentally dive them too
deep?  Will the lower percentage of oxygen cause your compressor to go
hypoxic, or will the fact the pure O2 came within 1/2 mile of the tanks
cause the entire 
establishment to go up in flames??
