Trey, you are the one who got us to thinking about it, and finally trying
the gas. I never heard anything from anyone but you guys about triox.

For the rest of you reading, especially those who think GI is such an
asshole, he helped us along the way, via e-mail, without hesitation.
His input, and input from Dan Volker were invaluable.

The two gasses we settled on are 25/35, and 32/30, and after 6 months of
diving the stuff, I have nothing but excellent results to report.

After diving triox for 4 months, I blended up a bottle of 32% nitrox, and
dove it. It was then I realized how badly I have been narked all these
years. The difference was *not* subtle.
