Grant, I think it is all the same. We just do not realize it unless we have a measuring stick. At 300 feet way back in a cave, the measuring stick is more evident. The U of South Carolina ( the "other" Carolina ) did a test using subjects on air at 40 feet in a chamber. They played chess against subjects outside of the chamber. Guess who won evey game regardless of who was on the inside and who was on the outside? The people on the outside. There is no mystery, nitrogen is narcotic. Extemely narcotic.
