Paul I wouldn't try anything Mr. Black has to offer you. This person has NOTHING tangible to offer in the useful advice area when it comes to diving. He is however somewhat entertaining as long as you are aware that his stuff is meant for entertainment only and NOT to be taken seriously. Continue the Quest. Good luck.
