To: techdiver@aquanaut.com
With doubles, the DS inflater definitely comes from the left post.  Since 
the inflator valve is usually in the center of the chest, it would be 
cumbersome to route it through the other side.  It is a real simple routing 
under the left arm.

When I dive with DIR divers in British Columbia, they always route it this 
way.  I am sure the single tank version would mimic doubles.
