A newbie weighting question.

[Finless]

I have often heard people make mention of "having lead in your pencil".

Should I attempt to take this into account when trying to calculate the correct amount of lead on my weight belt?

Would dressing to the left or right or upwards have a significant effect on my in water trim?

If any ladies have knowledgable answers to these questions I shall have to reconsider your current virginal status as I can only think of a few ways that you may have noticed this effect first hand.

Has anyone actually had a .... er ..... change to their buoyancy occur during a dive?

I can imagine that no one will admit to this. Hmmmmm, OK, I'll offer my services in the interests of science. I need one naked lady diver volunteer to come diving with me to 40 mtrs. If my theories are correct you should be perfectly safe. Not that I am boasting much but SHOULD I suffer a change of buoyancy it should be quite significant and by the time I've got back to neutral you will have had plenty of time to scarper .
