RIP Martin Gardner – Boing Boing

Well worth the 46 minutes to sit and watch. I read an article by Martin on John Conway’s Life when I was an undergrad looking for something to program.

Unidive nitrox course dives – HMAS Brisbane

On Saturday May 15th, after 2 other cancelations due to weather, Unidive finally made the trip out to HMAS Brisbane to finish the nitrox course. We had flat seas and sunshine and warm water, 23C by my computer, 24.3C by my watch.

I was nice and comfy in my 3mm with my vest with a hood, although it did get a bit chilly out of the water!

Unidive AGM

The Unidive AGM was tonight. Welcome to the new committee and thanks to the old committee for all their hard work over the last year!

I tried to get a shot of everyone, but I apologise if I have missed anyone (and to the many people I surprised and appear to be pulling faces!)

Another good cause.

The Story of Bottled Water

Some of the other stuff is a bit one sided, but generally true.
