I would think that if your first dive was within Nitrox limits to do that 
dive first.  I believe this to be the case because if for some reason you 
cannot go on a planned second dive to to conditions and you have to go 
elsewhere where it exceeds the Nitrox limits, you will not be able to 
dive.  Am I wrong in assuming this ?
