It will highlight the difference :-)

I allready got in contact with an instructor in Manly,
who was recommented by one of the list members.
I was just concerned about that "travel gas" issue, it
got me confused.

The guy in Manly seems to do it DIR if want that.
Sounds like a good idea to me. 
From the recent discussions on the list I know that DIR
is actually much more than just gear. It is also about right
judgement and decissions. Seams very resonable to me.

Thanks. I may come at the end of the year, when I need holidays :-)

Thanks, Jens.
