No, Adrian, it is your turn with the "reasoning". Just tell us what the
"reasoning" is that you were told. Obviously you did not make this
assininity up, and the reason I call you on it is I know exactly where it
comes from : IANTD.  How do I know? It is so stupid it HAD to have come from
them.

may be right , but this is what i know, there's no need for all the insults
& ridiculing, i was just participating in  the list, if i am/was wrong ,

Even if you are one of the most knowledgeable diver's on  the

    Look, moron, I asked you why, and I am saying you can not come up with a
reason that makes sense enough to risk a gas mixing error. You and the rest
of the idiots have nothing but bullshit to show for your diving, and this is
one more example of why - you do not know why.  I am so sick of idiots like
you who pump out nonsense and then cry like babies when you are confronted
about it. Put up or shut up. Tell us why this stupidity is done by "3/4 of
Europe". Show me where it makes sense. Obviously you can not do that.

    Let me refresh your memory, asshole:

    HI all,

          And what bullshit paranoia do you attribute the "two half turns "
to? This is the kind of mindless crap that gets people killed. I will say
right here and now that you can come up with no reason to do something that
stupid that makes any sense what so ever. Give it a try.

              Just a quickie. I'm just about to buy my first twinset with a
manifold. I've dived twins before, independents because of fiscal reasons
(I'm a poor student!) What I need to know is this. Some of the people I have
talked to who dive manis only open their iso knob about 1/2 a turn, whilst
others open it all the way. Thinking about it I can see advantages and
disadvantages to both:

              All the way
              Adv:         No risk of turning wrong way

              Disadv:     May get stuck if turned on all way
                              Have to turn it 3 turns (or whatever)

              Part way
              Adv:        V fast way of isolating

              Disadv:    Can turn it the wrong way
                             Not having it open all the way may limit
equalisation across the manifold.

              Now any or all of this may be unmitigated rubbish, but it's
just what I was thinking about last night.

              Any comments/suggestions as to how best to do it?

              As this is my first post, go easy on me - I'm still learning!

              Many thanks,

              Chris
