David-

For the benefit of our sometimes doubtful audience, what effect did your 
rather expensive changeover from strokedom to DIR have on your diving 
experience?

Conventional wisdom states that you should either have noticed no change 
at all (as the doubters say that status quo is fine, after all many diver 
do it wrong and survive their dives), or your diving is horribly crippled 
due to the fact that you are not using a personal preference setup 
anymore.

Care to enlighten us?

   Jim
