Sorry Helen, let me give you an example of how fu**ed up 'pooters really are.

When mine was downloaded after my offgassing problem and what I'd done was compared to Bhullmanns(speelin?) it looked a bit like this;
1st dive-copmputer told me 5mins I did 8. Buhllmanns would have given me 12. That's not a "big" difference really.
2nd dive-computer never went into deco, in fact the nearest it got was 5mins no-stop. This is the frightening bit, I was actually off the scale on Buhllmans. They didn't even deal with deco'ing at those times.

There was nothing spectacular about the dives; 1 at 35'sh for 45'ish and the second at 30'ish for 45'ish. 2 hour SI. I hadn't been drinking the night before, though I could've drank more water. We've all done it, indeed I still do it, just with a shitload more deco.

'Fraid the silicone chip will never be able to replicate biology,
Peter
