Hey, maybe cave divers and other "entry point oriented" divers could just leave their weights at the entry point. Then we could just carry our 50 lb rigs to the entry point, slap on some weights, and go diving! Maybe said magazine editor could invent a new sport using composite tanks without added weights...He could call it SCSBA (Self Contained Surface Breathing Apparatus). Which reminds me, whose turn is it to post to rec.scuba and ask what "SCUBA" stands for? ============================================================================== Chris Elmore University of South Carolina chris@ot*.hs*.sc*.ed* Humanities and Social Sciences Laboratory (803)-777-7840 Columbia, S.C. 29208
