Chris and Ron, 

Thanks for the information you gave. The information I seek is not the 
exceptional exposure limit listed in the previously mentioned 
books. If memory serves, these limits were "unpublished" to my 
knowledge and were originally obtained from Bret Gilliam. 

Also, would anybody out there have Ocean Techs number?

Joe Mierwa

PS. yes, it's the Monitor, but only if some transportation issues get 
    resolved.
