No Mike, I do not dive EAN40 to 140, or 130, or beyond my MOD of
102ffw.  I do carry EAN40 in a 30cf pony on some dives within
recreational depth limits (130).  What you have noticed is a
distortion by two individuals, MHK and Scott, regarding a post
on rec.scuba asking about pony mix.  I posted that I would breathe
EAN40 as bail-out on dives WITHIN, not up to, 130ffw.  In fact my
dive plan usually includes an air-filled primary plus EAN40 in
a pony, and most wrecks I visit with my boat are within 100ffw.

It would be revealing indeed if MHK or Scott, who are obsessed
with humiliating me, could find ANY statement I made about pony
mix and reprint the ENTIRE statement here, so that people can
judge for themselves (not some phrase taken out of context, but
the entire post).

I do find it interesting that Mr. Hunsucker revealed the extent
to which WKPP divers are exceeding established oxygen limits, up
to 20,000 percent???  You don't have to be a diving physiologist
to wonder about the credibility of that statement.  As I look at
this and other postings on this list, I have seen so many errors
(eg. Lasik surgery NOT requiring a knife; ANABOLIC steroids
used to treat a lung injury from contaminated oxygen) that the
message just gets lost in all the noise.  MJB
