Hence, END EANx 32 can be greater than END EANx 25 for a particular depth. This may be related to oxygen acting in concert with CO2, but the chapter doesn't say. "...
Kendall,
Read my post because to Steve becauseI think it has to do with the reduction in the 02 molecules and I'd be curious as to your thinking...
I also believe that given that N2 is an inert gas that continues to accumulate in the tissues and does not metabolize, and 02 does in fact metabolize and furthermore it hasn't been proven to accumulate in the tissues. Accordningly, I believe that support my thinking.. As to the C02, I haven't read anything one way or another with respect to narcosis, and it seems to me that there is enough to worry about respecting a C02 buildup to render any serious discussion and/or research moot...
I'm leaving and won't be back until Monday so we'll follow up then...
Later
