The  posts that follow undoubtedly comprise one of the most historically
important milestones in cave diving to date: Solving the whole croc-diving
conundrum in a morning  - there and back. The points about placing the long
hose UNDER the bang stick and O2 cleaning it/them are brilliant. Only
remaining are the issues of  the size of the bail-out bang sticks and
feeding O2 crunching vitamins to the croc, on which I would comment, if
coca-cola was not streaming from my nose onto the screen.... I leave it to
the masters. :-)
