SR,

I beg to differ. Mark is talking about it for a CO2 hit in this post:

Now if you are referring to this post:

Discuss the situation for me. Your stuck inside a wreck at 65m you have been there for an hour, you just got out but your scrubber is screwed because its the second dive on it and you don't trust it to last the 4 hours of deco, you haven't got enough bailout to go OC so you go semi closed.

Mark is talking about SC to extend the GAS not the scrubber. What he is really alluding to is that someone running tables or an external Constant PO2 computer is screwed.

If you want to talk about using SC to extend your scrubber, I suggest taking it off line, so some novices does not mistake it for an accepted practice.
