It's strange how much energy is expended over-analyzing and 
reverse-engineering everything except when something leads to senseless 
death.  Maybe the equation is just too simple.

John, read the part where the one moron leaves the other moron because he
has a smaller diluent bottle. These idiots are basically diving with "spare
airs". They planned a 500 foot dive where they could not stay down any
longer due to not having enough gas to last 20 minutes with  40:1 ratio. How
stupid can stupid get? Then that blazing idiot Christina gets on here and
makes some little quip about how "safe" it is to dive ccr over oc. Well,
that would be true if the bailout were set up properly, you had a real buddy
team and not these clowns, if you had proper training and not the weekend
warrior courses that predominate, and of course, the big one, if you had a
decent CCR and not the K Mart "Buddy Inspiration". Then that begs the
question , "why not use something that actually works and has none of these
issues", as well the question, "why is this so important to do in the first
place?".

Hey, Bill, could you explain something to me?

These guys planned dives with runtimes of 3.5 to 5.5 hours.

How can you plan that kind of dive on an Inspiration, given that the
Inspiration scrubber is only good for 3 hours?
