I was trained to run contingency tables for loss of deco gas and loss of
O2.  If you are too lazy to write them down, you should at least
familiarize yourself with what it does to your times.  That way you don't
need to ad-lib.  You are quite a bit better off losing your O2 rather than
your nitrox.
