  I have received a lot of the same questions so I will answer them in a 
single post.....

Recap of mixes  15/50  bottom mix for a dive plan to 220ft for 15mins deco 
gases 50/50 and 100% 02  tables were run on decoplanner GF 35/95 diver had 
not made a dive in 24hrs, but had already made dives to the wreck with no 
problems. Conditions on the last dive were good 49 degrees on the bottom, 
no current, 65 on top.... Diver went to next plan of 20 mins because they 
stayed 16 on the bottom.

Victim is under 30, good physical condition but a little over weight for 
their height  and there was no work load on the dive. The victim is a non 
smoker, but enjoys a good drink on their off days.

The victim states that they started having muscle twitches and sensed 
something was wrong, and moved over to the buddy..... I still am told no 
meds.... they can remember...

  very few have noticed an important lesson here, the buddy was on time, 
both divers did the right thing, the victim did not try to make it on their 
own and the buddy was there to help..... the out come is a diver who is 
alive....

I am getting a lot of sound advise and hope the diver follows it..... if I 
missed any questions send again....

Thanks
JT
