Chris P.,
     I believe that a program that will tell me things like what if I
put air to 3600 on top of a 14/45 mix at 2000, what would I have now.
I understand people like to get real teckie with math and want to be
as close as possible, but I feel that you can spend a lot of time
trying to reach a goal with the cheapest gauge they could find is
futile. They could even over-shoot their O2% and dive with it anyway,
and may tox out just because they wanted to get close.
    Sorry, but I just don't have time o write #'s down when I'm
filling. Last night I was trying to fill 2 sets doubles with mix, 2
80's with mix, 2 80's with 50/50, 2 80's with 34/66, O2 bottles, air
bottles, make sure all gear is working, trying to get 3 scooters
ready, and the list goes on and on. What I would not like to see in
any mix program is the damn thing asking me how much nitrogen, what a
stupid question, I would have to do math. I HATE TO DO MATH, that's
what I bought the program for.
   I'm not flaming you or anything, I just see so many people making a
big deal out of something that needs to be kept simple. Anyway, I
think i hear George pulling up now,and I would not want him to see me
talking to you.(ha ha)
                                              Barry
