    Hey Esat, I hate to interject when you're doing so well.  Aren't you
the guy that just got properly corrected by Michael Black MD, resident
you know what, for posting on rec.scuba that it was ok for a pregnant
woman to dive as long as she didn't go past 60'?  

    I offer two suggestions.  One, try spelling words so that those of
us who do not understand abbreviated hieroglyphics can understand what
the hell you're writing.  Two, I suggest you may want to pontificate the
following research papers about nitrogen inhibiting 'feeling cold',
since it would appear you're mistaken.  Feel free to offer up your
research that differs in this regard.
