baldypaul is on a distinguished road

I certainly agree with the last post, that people rely too much on computers. Myself included. I can plan dives from tables, but to be honest I rarely do.
I have made a decision to approach my diving from a more technical/responsible angle. At present, much of my diving runs into a couple of minutes deco and I realise this is fairly unnacceptable if I'm not planning it.
Having said that, I'm not in a position to, nor would I want to completely change my diving practices/equipment configuration overnight. Introducing planned decompression to my dives would seem like a step in the right direction, for me. I like the benefits of a variable profile computer though, and would be reluctant to change this.
I also realise that this is a DIR forum and I may be in the wrong place. However, advice which is not based on the colour of the buttons on a computer matching that of ones fins is appreciated here!
