Actually, because I'm getting nitpicked, I should
correct the part about water vapor - once
you are on Pure O2, your inspired PN2 is zero, period, not
counting an extremely miniscule amount that you
are exhaling due to offgassing (and I mean *tiny* - way
below anything that would affect deco).

Water vapor does not play a role in the calcs
once you have no nitrogen in your mix.

Sorry for the interruption - cavers, please resume clubbing 
each other with thigh bones. ;)
