Art, There is no confusion of the facts merely your interpretation of them I never claimed that i was the biggers toughest bad ass diver in the world or to be immune to narcosis. In addition i also never stated that one can not suffer the effecrs of narcosis. Narcosis is a reality not a figment of someones imagination. But i do know that the effects of narcosis may be controlled to a degree. which is ture, it is also true that narcosis effects everyone differently if it doesn't please show me the magic line that says proceed past this point on air and you will suffer nitrogen narcosis regardless of age weight, hydration, wheather or not you smoke and what kind of physical shape you are in. DCS is effected by a number of factors and can be reduced by minimizing certain ones the same is true for narcosis. It is a simple pysiological fact. To what degree this is is individual that is also true. yes narcosis does lower performance but to what degree and how it is delt with is varies from person to person.
