Actually, I just called IANTD last week to find out their requirements to 
get to trimix.  It's only 

1. Technical EANx     ]
2. Advanced Deep Air  ] can be combined into one course
3. Trimix

Advanced EANx and Deep Air are "recreational track" courses that do not 
lead to Trimix (meaning you still have to take Tech EANx/ADA even if you 
do take them).  

Now I just have to find a good instructor in the Miami area who will 
limit ADA to 130'. Any suggestions/volunteers? (Jeff Bentley -- any "good 
guys" south of Gainesville?)
