This was not simple repost of your original profile
in http://diver.net/bbs/messages/50026.shtml
You changed it. But that's good because you changed
the ascent gas from 50 to 35. Kanite asked you about
the 50 right after you posted it two weeks ago and
I've brought up the question numerous times since
(question #2) and you've never answered. But now
you've fixed the problem. Good.
Now, the questions are:
1. "I pointed out the above stuff about needing a
reserve, and you say I've never learned to choose
the proper tank size." How much of a reserve
is required, Karl?
Where did you post how to set a reserve? What's the
URL? All I remember is you pontifcating that an
80 was enough and some calculations that it had
enough gas to do the PLANNED dive. No factor
for when stuff happens. And stuff does happen.
2. Fixed.
3. "I pointed out that you were doing a no stop"
ascent to the surface, and you never answered."
How do you justify a no-stop ascent, Karl?
The dive planning software allows for stops
because you have posted profiles done with the
same software that has stops. So why did you post
an unsafe no-stop profile?
4. Why would I want to do little short dives all
day? I'd much rather do two or three and go have
a nice meal while my tanks are being filled.
