Cam, good point - you are right, and that is why JJ and his EE guys developed a program that as closely mimmicks our deco as is possible without using having the on the fly ability to make a change in deco based on immediate circumstances. As you know, I dive with no tables or computer for any dive. This program is available through EE or GUE. The WKPP version is not, but I did write up skelleton tables for all bottom times from 30 minutes to saturation for our main depth 285-300 area as a guide to our divers who then figure the exact deco on their own. The only reason I do not make that available outside of WKPP is that they require my explanation of how to use them and then a sound understanding of the concepts to use them on the fly, which is too time consuming. I do that for our related groups and friends whom I am always happy to give my guess as to what deco applies to their dives if they describe them to me. Most people just want to screw with me about it, like I don't know what I am doing, and I will give them no such pleasure. Anyone who gets involved with JJ and his org or our org finds all of these things out in ongoing detail. The rest already think they got it with their agency courses. I don't think so.
