The call for data on SCUBA equipment has netted a good deal
of information which I will post next week. The response
was great and the advice is excellent (and mostly
consistent!).
In the mean time, there seem to be the basis for a
"Great Question" on the relative merits of the various
types, styles and manufacturers of diving suits.
In order to get a little more objective data, I would
like to ask fellow divers on the networks to fill in
a questionnaire and send the results to me.
When the results have been tabulated I will, of course,
post them to this newsgroup for everyone to enjoy.
