Hey, if you're going to get a compressor for "other reasons", then I'd
still get one capable of filtering air for filling scuba cylinders....;)

Hey, I only have the squeaky voice when breathing Helium (which is
relatively rare)...and, by the way, one of the advantages of being under
water is, that the people you're with tend to shut up when having a

relevant enough, though, even when doing this just "for fun"...
The offer stands...come to France and I'll go diving with you....
