Scott,

Take out JJ's and George's name and I agree with you. <g>
As a matter of fact I can guarantee you that even accepting their stuff
without thinking will highly improve your diving. When these two guys
announce something Scott, they are backing it up with tons of experience and
an unbeatable track record. So you might decide to just copy their methods
to get similar results. Maybe you will start understanding better while you
are implementing these methods.

The biggest reason not to use a dive computer is because you do not need a
dive computer.

You do not need it to make an efficient deco dive
You do not need it to teach you deco
You do not need it to die on you
You do not need it to tell you that you violate it's programmed nonsense
You do not need it to beep
You do not need it to give you wrong information
You do not need it to make life "easy" for you
You do not need it to tell you what your SIT should be
You do not need it to tell you how much air time you have left
You do not need it to have a fucking H.U.D.
You do not need it to tell you depth
etc...

Now, can you give me one good reason why I need it?

THOMAS
