If you have one of the "sports" drink type plastic bottles - the ones with
the simple one way value in the drinking spout - then you can exhale into the
bottle to equalise pressure which allows you to drink some more.

While reading the article DIVING T0 18 GRAND  (Part 1 of 2) by George
Irvine, located at
http://www.wkpp.org/articles/Exploration/18grand1.htm
I became curious about the following passage.

>I did my 250 stop, my 240, and then broke to 200 to se [sic]if anyone was
>there - they were not. I grabbed a Gator Aide and went back to 230. I got
>one drink before I lost the Gator Aide to the void above me.


Maybe I'm confused, which could be very possible, but it appears that the
Gator Aide is being consumed while under water. Is this the case, and if so
how is it accomplished? Do the WKPP have some sort of habitat?

Just curious, if there is a way to get something to drink while in the water
I would like to try it, even if I'm just a lowly, recreational diver who is
just trying to learn more.

Thanks,

Kent
