No Grant. read it again. Or better still, get someone to 
read it for you. You're not doing very well on your own.

Never, Grant? Never? Don't be a clot.

I asked you a question. Can't you answer it?
And if one is applying POSITIVE PRESSURE oxygen, 
is a 100% seal between the mouth and the reg absolutely
necessary? (That's another question, Grant).

Er, I believe I was the one who said I would go and try it, 
remember?  1. understanding - theory. 2. Practice - trial. 
3. Preparedness to use it. WHat part of the above sequence is
gicving you all this difficulty?

Grant, you have poor reading skills, abysmal comprehension,
a very short attention span, and once round your bowl and your 
memory's wiped clean, you poor bugger. Are you sure you're not 
just a drooling example of the dangers of repeated deep air 
exposures? A sort of Living Lesion?

Is this an assumption Grant?  I thought you said you could 
NEVER trust them.

My argument was with those who said positive pressure
02 should absolutely NOT be administered through a scuba
regulator. I am working out how to do it. I will post the results
to the list. 

You can keep trying Grant but you won't find any holes.
