John, You have been listening to the party line. There are quite a few interesting things down there. DD is very much required, I do not advise getting your feet wet until you are comfortable with risk tolerance of diving so deep. There are rewards for those who are willing to take some chances. (Gosh it is pretty easy to phrase this along 'investment' terms) Anyone know the propagation abilities of cellular underwater? I might have to buy an Iridium phone and waterproof it if I am going to be spending much time out and in the open ocean! Jeff Vayda

Hola John G- My name is Caxton, not Claxton. Sport diving guidelines limited to 135ft, but you can do no decompression dives to 200 plus if you limit your bottom time within the tables. With a dive computer, you can push the edge a little it you are willing to decompression stops. Good practice is to stop for 3 minutes at 15-20ft even if you show no dec time. Although I push the limits, I never surface with dec time and always do safety stops. Way deep there is less color, but I like it. I always know I'm narced when I start giving my reg to the fish.
