Bill, I understood it was a IANTD EANx blender course. Regardless under
whose auspices the course was held under, I maintain that there is lots of
voodoo and BS being bandied about by various trainers. Witness some of the
posts on this list. Those with lots of real experience under their belts,
like Joel, are the ones to listen to and the aspiring techdiver needs to
screen his or her trainers by doing a bit of research on their own.

BTW, the next person who tells me that they get their mixes "within .5%
accuracy" had better tell me what model of mass spectrometer they are using
to come up with this figure as it is common knowledge that the margin of
error of your average O2 meter is +/- 2% on a good day.
