In tribute to a man I have a lot of respect for:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Paul_Fife

It is an excellent article, and covers some of the major achievements for which Dr. Fife was responsible.

There is a good summary of his research and work in hyperbaric medicine - including into cancer treatment.

Not mentioned, Dr. Fife was the person who discovered the 'free radical' base cause of cancers.

Hyperbaric oxygen has been hyped (pun intentional) for decades as a miracle cure for many an ailment. Yes, it does have some practical medical uses (treatment of gangrene being a prime one) ... but most of it is hoodooo.

My credes on this ...not much. Hyperbaric and Underwater Physiology - two month NSF seminar led by Dr. William Fife in 1972 at Texas A&M .... was an interesting summer. So, not a whole lot of qualificaion ... but who cares, eh ? On this board we just recently pledged to post unsubstantiated rumors as fact. *w*

Dr. Fife was quite a teacher and inspiration - and at the time, held the record for number of dive hours in sealabs (ie. going to depths of 1,000 feet or more for extended times.)

btw: Don't ever dive with an oxygen tank. At 35 feet (two atmospheres) 100% oxygen will kill you in about an hour. Very toxic.
