This is just overcomplicating a very simple system. KISS. The number *is* the MOD, you don't need to state it. The text "OXYGEN" is present on a 20' bottle to differentiate it from a 120' bottle, where the "1" might be obscured. >I'm sending this HTML so it may already look that way for you. >...and of course, a tech dive trip is either metric or imperial, with no mixing of the systems on the same boat. Actually, there is no overlap of markings between metric & imperial, so there won't be any confusion anyway. Therefore, the units are also not necessary. Um, always assuming you are applying rule #1, of course. John -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
