Your protests to the contrary, your continued cracks about DIR indicate to 
me that you have a definite prejudice against the system.  Your obvious 
ignorance of the system and how it works as well as your refusal to answer 
any replies to your posts pointing out the obvious errors in your 
understanding tell me that your problem is based on ignorance and attitude 
instead of any logical objection.

And when you receive a flame (that I may add you seem to purposefully 
provoke and therefore deserve) you protest most loudly that the flamer does 
not know you or how you dive.

So Ed, tell us about yourself.  What dives have you done and what 
experience do you have that qualifies you to express an opinion on 
techdiver.  Note, the resort course dives you did when you went to on 
vacation with your parents do not count.

And, if you had paid any attention to the list you would have learned that 
at least a dozen "ppl" have died diving the Inspiration rebreather.    Quit 
easy to understand, even for us dumb DIR types, but I guess a bit too 
difficult for you to grasp.  That record is enough to deter me from trying 
one but you are quite welcome to give a shot.
