Robert Boyle conducting all those experiments. He was kinda sick!

Poor kitty!

Virgil once bubbled... i've heard that the book, "stars beneath the sea" by Trevor Norton is worth a look. does anyone have any comments on that or alternative recommendations?

I have "Stars Beneath The Sea" and recommend it highly.

Based on what I read here, it looks like I'm going to have to track down a copy of "Neutral Buoyancy".

For more recent information, there is
"The Last Dive"
"Deep Descent"
"Fatal Depth"

If you can track down a copy of "The New Science Of Skin and SCUBA Diving", it is worth the read.

I have the second edition of "Down Time". That's good light stuff.
