I have read several post lately that quickly label someone, because of a 
perceived use of deep air.  I understand the concerns and obvious problems
associated with DEEP air.   But, how does someone become Trimix certified
without passing through Advanced Nitrox, Decompression Procedures, and what ever
other prerequisites are required by your certification agency of choice.  Most
of these courses require you achieve some minimum number of deep dives before
you can progress to the next course.  (quite often too few IMHO).

There seems to be an assumption that everyone should instantly achieve a level
of proficiency that many of you have spent years to obtain.

I point this out only because I don't want to see students insulted, when they
are most probably joined this list to learn.  These insults could discourage
them from reading this list, and learning from the wealth of knowledge that is
available here.

If a person CHOOSES to dive DEEP air, when an better alternative is available to
them, FLAME ON!!

Are there agencies that bypass these steps, and go directly into Trimix?
