Listen to Ronnie.  The easy out is usually not the best.  You strike me as
someone who is the first in their group of divers who is exporing tech equip-
ment.  Find someone who is already doing what you want to do.  Learn by their
side if can manage.  You'll learn a lot more that way than from the net or
a book or some classes.  You might also prevent other stupid actions like
pissing on yourself in the future...I meant that figuratively too!

Sorry, I just couldn't resist.  Keep the Q's coming. Seriously, don't die
from ignorance if you can help it.  You've been warned and are not ignorant
anymore. Take a class or get a video/book at least on diving dry.Water
inside your suit is your enemy no matter the source (sweat, condensate, leaks
internal or external).  Do you have the correct fabric against your skin?
If you don't know, find out before you dive dry again.  It's not as easy as
your earlier post said when you got real cold...  I think that article that
was posted said it's the difficult dives that make the difference in life or
death, otherwise known as natural selection. Successes can be false indication
you're prepared for another dive.

If you don't want to keep diving dry, I know a friend who's looking for a good
CF200 used and CLEANed of all bodily fluids.
