Ummmm, they "_theoretically_ run the CNS clock to 1000% without
_incident_"?

Does that mean that they did this all on paper, and no one was hurt?  Of
course in that situation there would no _incidents_, unless you count a
paper cut.

Or do you mean that during actual dives they ran up their clocks to what
normal CNS theory says is 1000%?  

Gramatically, from your statement, only the first is possible.  That would
be like saying I calculated a hundred dive profiles on deco software to
500ft on air for an hour with no deco, and I never got bent.  But then
again, my grammer has always been poor, so I could be mistaken.  Can you
clairify this?
