Gene,

Essentially what Rich was referring to was the difference between
mixed gas diving (often with "trimix" - helium, nitrogen, and oxygen)
and diving on compressed air.  The density of air at depths where 1.6 ATA
oxygen exposure occures produces significant differences in density when
compared to a mix with 30-50% Helium in the mix.
