  - Cal 28 -- nm - Beryllium Oct 17, 23:38 3
    - small boat, but it depends on the weather/wind, how much spray, do you have a really wide angle? near fisheye? - zeitgeist Oct 17, 23:45 1
      - naw, it's just a canon powershot. I'll leave it at home. :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 17, 23:46

    - I have to say, I'm rather impressed that you've taken up sailing at the onset of winter. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 17, 23:01 2
      - my SO does it, a lot of the semi tall ships and racing teams have classes and groups in the winter, they make money in the summer - zeitgeist Oct 17, 23:33
      - Well, two things: 1) If I like it, better to get a head-start now and then be able to cruise through summer ... and 2) Victoria has a mild climate - Beryllium Oct 17, 23:04

Does anyone know if Acrylic performs worse or better than Cotton when it comes to water absorption? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 17, 22:17 7
- Cotton tends to soak it up, gets very havy and takes forever to dry. - Trish Oct 17, 22:47 3
  - Yeah, I'm trying to find something that's not cotton. I think I've got it, though. - Beryllium Oct 17, 23:01 1
    - Go with jacket #2, definitely. Hell, I would freeze out on the sound in July, it's so friggin cold. The water temp rarely gets above 55. - Trish Oct 18, 00:26
  - yeah but it's the fabric of our lives -- nm - chris Oct 17, 22:50

Why is there no Vitamin F? Or Vitamin G for that matter? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 17, 22:06 4
- I had never heard of vitamin K until I was put on coumadin and told to avoid it. - MojaveMeg Oct 17, 23:22
- "A, B... whoa, slow down! There's a lot of these guys! B1, B2, uh, B6, B12, uh... C, D, E... ah eff it, let's skip to K and be done with it." - nubby Oct 17, 22:07 2
  - I think what happened is that a lot of vitamins form F to J where discovered to be of the "B" family. And some others were just "false positives". -- nm - celedhring Oct 17, 22:09 1
    - Wikipedia agrees with me, and gives the original vitamin list too. -- (link) - celedhring Oct 17, 22:11

        *puke* -- nm - Gwaahjo Oct 17, 21:36 1
