Does anyone know of any tests conducted in a chamber to measure the 
effects of "oxygen narcosis"?  It should be a simple enough hypothesis 
to check for anybody researching hypabaric physiology.

I'm curious Richard.  I'm new enough to the news group not to know 
your background.  What do you call greater depths?

Bye,   Helen.
