	The old computers that are real bad are based on some
substance which expands with N2 during a dive, correct?

	Are not the new decompression computers just integrated
depth, watch, tables type things?   I thought someone had just
built something that drives the standard tables which are kept
is some state machine or memory, no?

	Can someone describe the mechanisms involved in the
1st to Nth generation DeComp. computers, I for one am interested.

Also, how about some heavy (~1/4 in) wet suit recommendations,
and places/mail order catalogues to get  them cheap.
