Hello, You have some medical facts to back up this number of 12? Also it would be intersting to see how many died with 'dir equipment' but who made silly mistakes and ended up dead. Just like fighter planes. The standards and equipment is so advanced that mistakes, when they happen, are almost always listed as 'pilot error'.

After all, no one has ever died on an Inspiration, and the newspapers are full of people who have croaked using the DIR method. I think I'll sell all my DIR gear and just get an inspiration. In all seriousness, just look at the death toll. That number alone should make it clear why your little joke about DIR is not funny, and why people call it the Buddy desperation or the Buddy Expiration. I believe the death toll is at 12 now, on the Inspiration. I don't need much more than this: Buddy Inspiration : 12 DIR : Zero Next....
