   Laurie Ann, you bring up a good point about the "Nitrox" stickers.
Down here, nobody will fill tanks marked with these stickers. They are
a bad idea anyway - the best procedure is to remove everything but the 
VIP sticker, and stencil the depth at which the bottle can be breathed
onto the bottle, or if you use many mixes in one bottle, tape it each
time with the depth and the date. The shops will not refuse it, and it
tells you what you really need to know , which is "how deep you can breath
this mix". - George


George,

Unfortunatly, here in Canada her tanks will not be filled W/ Nitrox 
w/out the damn stickers. I know of only one shop that pre mixes 32 
&36 the rest partial fill and tend to be a tad paranoid.I gave her 
the stickers, not because I like the look but because for the 
majority of her diving in Ontario, Quebec . I agree that in your area 
its a bad idea, however not all of us dive there! Could you forward 
this on to LA w/ your reply to this? She is an excellent person/diver 
who one day we will all be hearing about. Thanks and good diving. I 
off for a winter holding hands down south so give them hell, take no 
prisioners and thans for all your comments ( yeah I learned something 
from your ranting!! :-) -
