        Maybe some of the deco gurus here can help me out on this one.
When I am leading trips in the Carribean we usually do about five dives a
day and are loaded to the brink of deco after about every dive.  When
conducting training dives I usually have to make about 5 to 10 extra
ascents on the second and third day for alternate air source, CESA, etc.
This profile is not really compensated for by the tables or computers (not
mine anyway).  Here is the question?
        Would going back down to make a safety stop be beneficial at all?
                1.  In term of decompression that may have been necessary
due to the profile.
                2.  In aiding in offgassing in order to reduce N2 loading
for repititive dives.
