Frank, the problem with this guy is that he should have spent less of his "23 years experience" smuggling bone, and more of it diving. He obviouly has the time to spend flaming as well, but doesn't bother knowing WTF he is talking about, the trademark of the IANTD instructor. Why deal in facts when bovine scatology will do so well? After all, since this genious thinks that ther were "old days " in which one could be a moron and get away with it, who are we to correct him? Who am I to tell someone how to do it right when they have been doing it wrong for so long.. Again, look a the oil companies and the Navy. I can show this guy a copy of my twenty year old Navy manual that has scuba heliox tables in it that discusses all of the things that this guy still doesn't understand. Try telling the traffic cop that you didn't know the speed limit, or telling the IRS that you didn't know you had to pay taxes. Guys like this need a good flaming. - G << Start of Forwarded message via prodigy (R) mail >> From: Frank Deutschmann Subject: Re: IANTD Teaching Date: 09/14 Time: 05:41 PM Date: Thu, 14 Sep 1995 16:23:15 -0400 (EDT) From: Frank Deutschmann [fhd@in*.ne*] In-Reply-To: <199509141824.AA23939@in*.fo*.co*> from "gmcgee1%pmsa85%pmsa05.pms.ford.com@fo*.co*" at Sep 14, 95 02:24:54 pm Subject: Re: IANTD Teaching gmcgee1%pmsa85%pmsa05.pms.ford.com@fo*.co* sez: > I happen to be sitting at my desk at work (Some of us have real jobs and > are not dive bums) not a dive site.

Man, if you can't do this in your head at your desk, perhaps you had better not be diving... The curious thing is that your number is so random -- I could see if you came up with 270 fsw = 2.0ppO2 on air (30fsw X 2.0ata / .2ata - 30fsw ==> easily done in your head quickly), but how did you get 257fsw???
