Hey Terry, A quick thanks for all your help at the demo.
Why should we bother with the Yukon at all. What if a couple of the non-nitrox boats mysteriously became artificial reefs? That'll up the demand, and perhaps offer a secondary impetus for the owners to start pumping nitrox. Of course, it won't do any good for those of us who haven't bothered with a Nitrox cert yet :-(
Talk about the chicken and the egg. I haven't bothered with Nitrox yet because not only do the boats I frequent not pump it, no one within 2 hours of my QTH has it (membrane or mix). The closest is Monterey. But for those of you who whine about a $8 Nitrox fill, shops up here in the armpit are getting $5+ a fill for *AIR*.
And after the in-pool demo and talk, I'll have to put a new BP & wings ahead of Nitrox training in my budget forecast. Is that considered Pork Barrel spending?
