You did not get my point. With a laptop computer and a tables program like
decoplanner, you can spend hours before the dive analysing different
profiles, deco gasses, bailout situations, etc.

You also learn your personal tolerances and can account for these as well.

And don't tell me you can do this worth a crap with a wrist unit.

By the way, check out this little tidbit:

IANTD(UK) is run by Kevin Gurr http://www.iantd.com/iantd-uk.html
he gets  bucks for every IANTD card sold & is Toms right hand man.

VR3 POS is made by the very same guy http://www.vr3.co.uk/
(look at the phone number on the Left & the Phoenix logo)

I have been reliably informed that all IANTD Trimix courses in the UK,
promote the VR3 as the way to dive trimix - no doubt the instructor gets a
kick back on every VR3 sold.

Tom obviously got a copy of free ones.

My, we are an incestuous little group, aren't we?

Tom, your audience is not composed entirely of idiots, although it appears
that you assume this is the case.
