     Hi Ron,

       Yes, try ABYSS for software right now.  GAP is also building an RGBM 
package, and putting RGBM into
   a Palm Pilot.  Also, I will be making a no frills version of the RGBM 
available for download our site, RGBMdiving.com.
   None of this is, nor will be,  freeware.

      Also, we have constructed an RGBM Data Bank for tech diving at same 
site, and invite tech divers to submit
  their profiles (square wave), OCs and RBs, with arbitrary mixes and switches.

       Very nice that Lepowski regards RGBM as "bulletproof".  So far 
everything reported to us is thumbs up,
  including DCS stats, trade mags, media coverage, articles, field tests by 
NAUI Tec Ops, LANL, NET banter, etc.
  With regards to all of the above, we have always adopted a "what works 
works" attitude over the past
  5 - 12 yrs of diving RGBM.  NAUI  released recreational RGBM Tables last 
year.  Draft copies of
  the soon to be released mixed gas, deco tech RGBM Tables will be 
available in Tampa this weekend.

     Models are just that -- the proof is in the water with real 
diving.  Theory flies out the window when
it doesn't work across the board.  RGBM has, and does.  And that is due to 
real divers in the
real water world.  They are the living testimony -- what works works.

    We also have some new strategies online for the RGBM recreational 
Tables that enjoin them to
our tech Tables.

      We'll talk about all of this, and more, at the NAUI Deep Stops And 
Modern Deco Strategies Wkshp at
Tampa this weekend (2/20)
