... I guess if you want advice on rebreathers, the best way to approach it is to get on the Internet and ask a bunch of people who have never used one ...
Cory ... you coming to the rebreather experience next Sunday? I bet you could get way better advice by talking to Curt and Mel ...

For those who say that Cory's original stated reasons aren't valid, check back in with me when you're pushing 60 and those doubles just get heavier and heavier. I guess a lot of young folks would say that us older folks shouldn't be doing those dives. You might have a point ... but we'll see how you feel about it when you reach that age and have to impose that choice on your own diving ...

I started reading Raising the Dead yesterday and I couldn't put it down - I am half way through. The book is about David Shaw's 900' dive using an Inspiration rebreather in Bushman's Hole South Africa and recovering a tech diver. This title is only available for Kindle, but it appears that the book Fitch, Diving into Darkness: A True Story of Death and Survival is the same. The author discusses the basics of how rebreathers work and how Shaw went beyond the limits of the machine.

Nope.... If this thread is so amusing and then why not just read it rather than resurrecting it from the dead can you imagine if somebody posted on the Octo thread that brought this board to national attention... Everyone here would have to reread all that bickering when it's in the past...Jeff Pack wrote:what an incredibly amusing thread to read.
So did Mr. Brown ever get a rebreather?
