Wow!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply, Eric. My congratulations as well on your recent record. Judging from your intelligent post it is apparent that prolonged apnea is indeed not harmful, and probably, beneficial. I've been barely breathing since I read it.

I'm soon to be forty and have always been what you might call a "deep snorkeler", in that I rarely penetrate 10m (it sounds like more if you say 30ft). I've never trained for more, although this past year have given it some thought, at least until I had open heart surgery to have my pericardium removed. Thankfully, I'm much better now and almost to where I was when I left off. I have a pair of picasso fins (black) which work well for me and have been excersizing regularly for a couple of months now.

Again, Thanks to all the replys,
Sean
