    Creation vs. Evolution

    I don't think that's what he was saying. As I read it, I believe the suggestion was more that if the West throws away it's fundamental understanding and grasp of science and human progress.....then other countries, like China, will pull ahead. In such a competitive world as today if you give...

    Creation vs. Evolution

    I didn't use any of those descriptions, or resort to name calling. I also don't believe that the existence of some kind of force within which all life is contained in any way precludes science or evolution. In fact Einstein I believe stated it rather succinctly....something like... "Energy...

    For many that's true. It's very sad really......

    Looking for a Canon point and shoot

    Sorry........ I was rushing and confused numbers! :D In any event the 570IS is sweet for the money - it's still a Digic 3 processor which is actually better than my DSLR 400D (Digic 2), and has full manual control. It's 7.2 mega pixels I believe - that's plenty. With the CHDK hack you get...

    Looking for a Canon point and shoot

    Yes...... and with the A720IS deal I linked to you're finished for around $300! That's REALLY hard to beat because it's a good setup too. Because it has the Digic 3 processor you can use the RAW hack as well........

    I don't know exactly.... it's hours though.

    Suunto Vyper

    It's probably the same as the original. It'll turn itself off.

    Losing my best canine friend

    Oh dear..... I don't know what I could say except I feel sad to hear it....... I wish you strength to deal with it.

    Help with first liveaboard

    Many businesses on SB have their own complete forums.....for free! Some do sponsor, but I really don't think it's all of them. Pete is happy with any input he can get. How about you....as someone who gets benefit from the board....are you a supporting member? Without the people who can...

    Help with first liveaboard

    But the visibility is usually much worse than in the North..... The first night onboard rest up applies equally to the overnight trip to the Similans, as well as Hin Daeng/Muang. I'm not affiliated to any shop, but I've met Stevenl, as well as several others from Phuket, and I can honestly...

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    I'm not offended..... just pointing out that I didn't actually agree with you....... although others might! ;)

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    You need to learn to read what's actually there Pete........rather than that speed reading skip over stuff that you sometimes seem to do! :D

    IS Diving NITROX Increasing task loading?

    In theory it is. ;) In practice I'd guess it depends on the person.

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    I probably AM a half assed diver in the opinion of many! :D For myself I get by though....:eyebrow: As for your opinion - of course it's worth as much - which considering that I don't believe you or I have actually tried these fins should probably both be taken with the same pinch of salt. :D...

    IS Diving NITROX Increasing task loading?

    Well........ For me the only real extra task loading that I'd worry about is the flight I'd have to take to get somewhere that actually sold Nitrox! :D For the dive? No task loading at all. In fact, as it would reduce the effects of narcosis normal task would become even easier....

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    I'm confused...... his post is still there as far as I can see...... I also start swimming from about that depth - well at least half swimming! :D

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    I just read it as a statement of disinterest really........ much the same way I felt when I first saw the fins. We're a discussion board aren't we? There wouldn't be much discussion if everyone felt the same way about everything. I certainly didn't read it as "hate" - especially in the light...

    Fold up fins, so you can easily walk into the water

    Oh dear......you really have got a bone here somewhere huh? Pete - you used the word "hate" - no one else did....... and I just don't see it, and I don't think Walter does either but he can speak for himself. I'm not quite sure WHO you are talking about, but it's coming over as a blanket...

    How do you judge or form an opinion on gear you have not tried?

    How you form an opinion will depend on the impression the product makes, and how much you perceive a personal need for that product. That you WILL form an opinion is a certainty - how else would you ever buy anything new that you never had before otherwise? At the end of the day other...
