But the worst point in open water would be at the end of the deep section, where you would be forced to use almost all off the 6l air in order to get to the MOD of the EANx80, and then do a long deco before being able to surface. And if you're doing cave diving, the worst point would be the furthest point inside stone. IMHO this would indicate that the user should be able to define where the worst point, eg, where the bailout happens in the given plan*, and get as a result the calculation of required gas amount as per given gas mixes. * Without altering the planned depths Poltsi -- Paul-Erik Törrönen "When science and the Bible differ, pol...@777-team.org science has obviously misinterpreted +358 40 703 1231 its data" http://poltsi.fi/ Henry Morris, father of 'modern creationism' _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list subsurface@hohndel.org http://lists.hohndel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
