See what i mean.

I suppose you also drive the safest car on the planet?

I personally drive a car that's economical, and I treat my diving the same. I've dived trimix, and not felt a significant difference to warrant the cost.

Now I dive CCR it's not an issue for me

But, given that an Advanced Recreational Trimix ticket is the same amount of time and same cost as an ERD course, why would you do an ERD course first?

Explain to me why, if we've already had a couple of CCR divers on here say they use trimix all the time, some even in the pool, becuase it's so cheap, and they don't need much (please see Mark Chase and Nigel Hewitt's post for reference) then how come you believe I am incorrect to say it's appropriate below 30M on open circuit. Is there something about CCR diving that affects the levels of narcosis, or am I right in saying that using mix on open circuit when narcosis occurs is the only ideal gas, and that anything else is just a compromise due to price and availability.

Yes, but I would guess that that's a matter of opinion.
