  Why would somebody use tables that do not work to start with , like =
the PADI wheel? Why would somebody use a computer that does not work =
either? Why not learn how to decompress properly, familiarize yourself =
with that process over a wide range of possibilities, and then be able =
to decompress with no tables or computer?

    Ok, quick question. Each dive I do or have ever done, in any =
circumstance. Is done using a Uwatec bottom timer and tables (PADI wheel =
for dives less than 40mtrs with no deco) ( Stop Laughing this is a =
serious question) as I thought this was DIR.=20
    =20
    However I get the feeling that on lots or recreational dives, lots =
of people who dive DIR, use computors due to convienence. And I must =
admitt it would be more simples to use one, BUT I'm quite quick using =
the wheel (stop laughing) to calculate bottom times so there isn't =
really an inconvienence.

    SO my question is : Is DIR no computors for anything bar nothing ? =
and if so what tables etc are people using to calculate bottom times on =
casual dives less than 40mtrs (no deco)? or is using a computor on dives =
less than 40mtrs with no deco within the DIR frame ?=20
    Cheers
    Chaz
