Differences Between The Membrane Method and Oxygen Blending
| Membrane method | Oxygen blending |
|---|---|
| No O2 equipment cleaning | Risk of leakage and explosion |
| Uses inexpensive compressed air | Requires expensive O2 |
| Low, non critical maintenance | High, critical and expensive maintenance |
| Uses standard oil lubricated compressors | Expensive oil free compressor required |
| High volume output | Low volume production |
| Continuous on-site production | Only 50% of O2 cylinder usable |
| Lightweight and compact | Requires heavy O2 cylinders |
| Dive boats live-aboard and remote sites | Requires facility for safe production |

“What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“The mother must teach her son how to respect and follow the rules. She must teach him how to compete successfully with the other boys. And she must teach him how to find a woman to take care of him and finish the job she began of training him how to live in a family. But no matter how good a job a woman does in teaching a boy how to be a man, he knows that she is not the real thing, and so he tends to exaggerate the differences between men and women that she embodies.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
““I have usually found that there was method in his madness.”
“Some folk might say there was madness in his method.””
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“All the oxygen of the world was in them.
All the feet of the babies of the world were in them.
All the crotches of the angels of the world were in them.
All the morning kisses of Philadelphia were in them.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Exhaust them, wrestle with them, let them not go until their blessing be won, and, after a short season, the dismay will be overpast, the excess of influence withdrawn, and they will be no longer an alarming meteor, but one more brighter star shining serenely in your heaven, and blending its light with all your day.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
