Where's Joe? We don't get Guest Lecturers in rec.scuba often.
I was really looking forward to learn about HP and LP hoses
from him.

-- Bob.

You can't go by your bore hole theory.

I am talking about blown hose, which would have no bore restrictions
you name.

Really now?

Why don't you tell us WHERE or FROM WHOM you learned THAT?

Thought you were gone for good tugging your hose behind your tail.

What happened to the earlier question I asked you???

Why don't you tell us WHERE or FROM WHOM that you learned that a
HP hose will drain a scuba tank much faster than a LP hose?

-- Bob.

Sure it would. Have you ever taken the HP hose off of your first stage?
Do you have even the slightest clue about how a first stage is made
today? Did you try the experiment I proposed?

(do you know why top posting is considered bad form on Usenet?)

Alan

You Can't answer/or explain the blown hose situation. Therefore turns
to insults.

hehe

your make me laugh

You're showing your ignorance. Pay attention and you may do better. Take
your high pressure hose off, turn the end that goes into the regulator
towards you and look at the pinhole size of the opening. Now do the the
same with your low pressure hose. You find that the opening in the high
pressure connection is much, much smaller than the one in the low pressure
hose.

The fact is, the high pressure hose is deliberately designed to allow a very
small flow. Not much is needed to operate a pressure gauge. The low
pressure hose is designed for low restriction and a high flow. A lot of gas
may be required to keep you breathing at depth.

The pressure in the low pressure side of things is only low because of a
valve in the first stage that is designed to maintain an approximate
intermediate pressure. When the pressue in the hose is less than the preset
value, as it is when you breathe in or when the hose or connection fails,
that valve flows gas like crazy in order to restore the design pressure.
With a blow low pressure hose, it will continue to flow like crazy until
there is no longer sufficient pressure for it to flow more, ie, the tank is
empty.

Just because he's insulting doesn't mean that he's not right.

No truer word comes from the rec.scuba Ostrich, who brags that
he had me killfiled -- because I was RIGHT every time DING-DONG
and I had ANY argument about ANYTHING scuba related, and sooner
or later during the argument, I would start INSULTING Lee when
he only obfuscates and mouth dances -- just like you, Joe!

It's ALL in the archives -- Lee couldn't find a SINGLE solitary
subject in which he was right, and I was wrong in our arguments.

The most RECENT one he thought he was right took place in 2001,
and Lee THOUGHT he won the debate. He had to dig REALLY DEEP
in his Ostrich Hole to pull that one out of his arse.

I BURIED him with FACTS:

That's why Lee is reading my posts only SECOND hand, through Putz
like you, Joe.

Joe, you are such a PUTZ (good choice of word by chilly) that you
are flamed by the old timers of rec.scuba (in fact, members of the
Dysfunctional Gang --which I hope they have outgrown <BG>, who
usually tried to find every miniscule excuse to flame ME! ROTFLMAO.

No, he's showing serious stupidity. He's read explanations of how it works, so if
he's still ignorant it's because he's box of rocks stupid.
