Subject: Re: DEEP AIR VOTE, was: (RE: Re:IANTD vs 70 m air instruction and
     158 m air dives You gotta be kidding)
40 ft. They do not do chamber experiments of this type on college kids
at 40 meters - too risky . Despite what the liars in the bive business
want you to believe, DCS is totally explainable and so is the reality of
narcotic gas. 

Let me give you an exmaple in case the liars want to start up again. One
of the chambers in Tallahassee ran one of those 165 foot recompressions
on a diver about ten years ago. One of the attendants had to do the ride
with the diver, per protocol. They finished the ride, the attendant went
home.

She was found dead the next morning - CAGE. SHE HAD A PFO, but had not
been tested for it. You do not run college kids to deco without testing
them.

Let me give you one of the corrolaries to WKPP Rule Number 2 ( Don't
Listen To Strokes) - C#2 of R#2: "If the information came from the dive
industry or its paid consultants, even in the medical field, it is
probably not only wrong, misleadingly wrong, and bullshit, it is likely
the antithesis of the truth."
