Thanks for the reminder about the risks of metal-to-metal connections.  
Hope you won't mind a few followup questions...

- Do you clip the double-ender around the velcro part of the 
  spare mask's slap strap?

- How do you attach your line arrows to a clip?  When using them,
  do you first take the clip out of you pocket and then remove (or 
  replace) the arrow?  Or can you do it all with the left hand
  while the clip's still in the pocket?
  
- Where do you carry additional gap/jump spools?

- Is the "book" WetNotes?  If so, do you cut them a little shorter,
  or leave it full-length?  What type of pencils do you carry?

- Are you using a DUI pocket on the right side?  If so, have you 
  noticed a problem with its velcro strips being too narrow, which
  prevents the flap from closing totally flat because you have to 
  make the velcro "line up"?  (The similar Halcyon pocket has wider 
  velcro strips.)

Thanks!

- Todd
