Read it, liked it.

I was motivated by Marku's answer in the http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/philippine-paradise-divers/217987-tipping-gifting-pi.html thread and I got my book sent over so I can give it to someone.

wow Hewllet Packard books.... your soon is a techie...

on another note, reading material.

HOmer Hickam

Hickam began writing in 1969 after returning from Vietnam. His first writings were mostly about his scuba diving adventures for a variety of different magazines. Then, after diving on many of the wrecks involved, he branched off into writing about the battle against the U-boats along the American east coast during World War II. This resulted in his first book, Torpedo Junction (1989), a military history best-seller published in 1989 by the Naval Institute Press.

+1 for Homer, WV's native son. Each sentence that Hickam writes is worthwhile and meaningful.
