Nitrox, Deep Diving, TriMix = Money, Money, Money.
I've been diving for a couple of years now, long before there were courses
on these items and I've watched how fast these courses have sprung up. It
seems to me that a select group of people are taking a very limited amount
of information and trying to get the most money from it.

How many different IANTD courses are there on Nitrox, 5 or 6? I mean
Nitrox is just enriched air, how hard can this concept be.

I'm sorry but I've been around this stuff for a long time and I've gone to
a lot of lectures and workshops on tech diving before it had a name and
now someone is going to stop me and ask to see if I have my "Deep Trimix,
decompress on Nitrox" card.

Lets face it, all we need are good comprehensive classes on Nitrox and
TriMix(maybe HelOx).
