Like Paul I currently do deco on 50% and will hopefully be getting certified for 100% soon (anyone in the Monterey area want to make up the numbers for a technical nitrox class with Wings in a couple of weeks?). I know a number of people on this list advocate not using dive computers, but the reality is that many of us do, and a dive computer will give a violation if you go above your ceiling. So on the 20' stop, if using a computer you need to stay a little below 20', hence presumably reducing the margin for downward error if on 100% O2. Correct? --0-1681692777-960597935=:28706 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <P>I see.
