Summary

I edited the summary to correct two mistakes. (1) Decompression stops do not "eliminate" the risk of decompression sickness - they reduce or control it. (2) Except in the most extreme cases (eg. explosive decompression), decompression sickness does not occur "during" a dive - it occurs on or after surfacing - often several hours after. These facts can be found in any basic SCUBA diving manual. TC 203.122.223.121 (talk) 05:29, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Clairify before copyright violation discussion...

I made this edit in 2008 to the "Category:Decompression algorithms" which was later moved to this article. This was text I had created with the help of David Doolette to describe decompression models for a project that has since been removed from our web site. We are about to use the text again in a re-write of our web site later this month but I anticipate that someone may come along and question the source and verbatim use of this text at some point. I did not know enough to anticipate the issue when I first posted this text but now that I am a little more experienced here, I want to stay ahead of the game. I have no problem with the use since I am the author. Thanks! --Gene Hobbs (talk) 14:42, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I might as well mention it here, Gene, so others might follow suit, but I now tend to make my websites compliant with CC-BY-SA, rather than © me or the writer, just in case someone wants to re-use the content. It also allows you to add the text to Wikipedia without going through the OTRS system, since it's already using a compatible free licence, and it's just as useful for images that I put on my sites as well. --RexxS (talk) 01:57, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
