>        There is a good article on DCS in the August 1995 issue of
Scientific American.  There's even a side bar on Technical Diving complete
with pictures.  The article is written by the doctors from DAN, Vann, Moon,
and Bennet.

>        Most interesting is an alegedly statistical link between PFO and
neurological DCS. According to the article 50% of the divers treated at Duke
for neruological hits had PFO.  PFO statistically according to the authors
exists in 20% of the population.

for some.
