I agree absolutely.  But where it gets interesting for me is knowing where to 
draw the line.  I hate the effects of nitrogen, and have often thought that I 
would like to start diving everything after 90ft on gas but every time I try 
to schedule this I get hammered on the deco.  Maybe when JJ's program finally 
comes out <g> that will change.

Thanks again,
