David, I too thought your post was pretty funny so I asked the question to my wife (who has 15 dives in the Caribbean and is so new to diving she's lucky to get 20 minutes out of an AL80) and she knew the answer. I, myself, learned this about 10 minutes after certification when I noticed (in a dive shop) that there were different types of manifolds and tanks and wondered why. I don't see how you could take that many classes and be an instructor for so many things without knowing this. I agree - scary. -ben Master of the Universe Member of the Board of Directors for Darwin Control Inventor of Water x^2 + y^2 = z^2 2+2 = 4 PhD in Garbage Transportation First Man to go into Space without a space suit etc., etc. more absurd, retarded sig file nonsense --- Daniel Smith <Daniel_Smith@CO*.CO*> wrote: > > > David, read your own post again.
