In my circumstances I'm *more* than happy to "just have a go", but I may
know more about O2 than the average punter.  (Or tech nitrox instructor
for that matter).   As I said I'm not pro or con courses *as such* but for
me, they teach me *nothing* and I would assume that this would be the case
for lots of other subscribers to this list.
Cheers Jason :)
