"The mental effects of each additional 50 fet of depth, breathing air, are approximately equivilent to those of one dry martini, assuming the stomach to be empty."
From: The New Science of Skin and Scuba Diving copyright 1974, 1968, 1962, 1957 by Council for National Cooperation in Aquatics. Oh yea, page 76. On page 77 is a cartoon of a diver dancing with a topless mermaid at 175 fsw. Never seen that in the new PADI books!
I also remember that Martini's Law was on our written test.
