I screwed it up the right way - I picked the bottles up because they
were set too deep ( they had slid dwon the hill), but forgot to breathe
them when I got to the switch. We don't care about a gas that is ok to
breathe at the depth, only one that is too shallow for the depth. That
was never in evidence. Besides, everyone is used to me breathing the
deepest gas until it is exhausted and then switching on days where we
are doing multiple dives - this leaves the other gas which is more
needed on the second dive than the first ahnd saves me putting more
bottles in the water. It was also years ago.
