Is one lecture from an instructor enough information to make life and death decisions about? I'd think you'd be searching MEDLINE and searching for any and all information available from commercial and other sources. How about Bennett's studies? How about bribing COMEX to get their research data? Here are some Bennett citations: Bennett, P.B. 1982b. The high pressure nervous syndrome in man. In: The Physiology and Medicine of Diving and Compressed Air Work. (P.B. Bennett and D.H. Elliot, eds), Balliere-Tindall, London. pp. 262-296. Bennett, P.B. 1990. Inert gas narcosis and HPNS. In: Diving Medicine, Second Edition (A.A. Bove and J.C. Davis, eds.). W.B. Saunders Company, Philadelphia. pp. 69-81. Bennett, P.B, R. Coggin, and J. Roby. 1981. Control of HPNS in humans during rapid compression with trimix to 650 m (2132 ft). Undersea Biomed. Res., 8(2): 85-100. Good luck and have fun researching Brian --------------9D9AC4A5523FC355888EEE92 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html> "Kuiper, Greg" wrote: <blockquote TYPE=CITE> <p><font size=-1>Bill Mee,</font> <br><font size=-1>I agree with you 100% about 130' + being unacceptable on air during training or any other time.
