Billy - I can't even get trimix fills in *Miami* -- even though IANTD's world headquarters is in this town!* The closest location is Brownies in Ft. Lauderdale, where I usually dive. One weekend, mix wasn't available at Brownies, so I called IANTD and was told that Tom Mount is the only practicing gas mixer in all of Dade County and he doesn't do fills. There's no question that I could call up a gas supplier and put in a cascade (and I'm seriously considering it at this point), but you would think that mix would be a little more available in one of the best diving locales in the U.S. and home of the (presently) number one tech training agency. Bottom line -- if you're coming to the States to mix dive -- better call ahead. It's not as widely available as you might think unless you're prepared to mix it yourself.
