[PSUBS-MAILIST] escape pod update

[Private via Personal_Submersibles]

My guess, and I haven't done any calcs whatsoever, is that in a PSUB sized boat you would find the necessary volume of compressed air to be prohibitively large.

Second question... Since your sub is a two person, can you get two people into the sphere?

I want to do that before it snows and the roads get bad.  I can borrow the hatch off Gamma if need be.  Smart engineer (me) made the escape pod hatch the same size as Gamma's hatch :-)
