Hi Guys,

20 million people scuba dive around the world. Most of these divers
record their dives and usually include what they have seen - in
personal dive logs. Well, these dive logs could contain some really
important scientific data.

So, with the United Nations Environment Programme - World Conservation
Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC), Coral Cay Conservation (CCC) and marine
biologists from all over the world, we are creating the world's first
Global Dive Log - a unique database of dive logs.

The health of our oceans impact the lives of everyone. Covering 70% of
the earth's surface and containing 90% of our planet's living
biomass, the oceans are the lungs of our planet. Yet no baseline
mapping exists that measures the changing state of our oceans, man's
impact on this resource, and how the state of the oceans will affect
life on our planet for generations to come.

Do us a favour and help us give the oceans a health check. Log-on to
http://www.earthdive.com and log a dive. Its FREE and you get an
amazing online divelog with interactive digital maps!

With your help we can produce a Global Snapshot of the world's
oceans...

I remember my first time out to the trim pad when I worked RF-4Cs (RAF
Alconbury, 79-82).  Standing off to the side of an engine lit almost sucked
the contacts out of my eyes--awesome.  If QA wasn't around, a crew chief
would toss a can of oil in the flame for the newbies out there.

That, my friends, is sucking, squeezing, and blowing.
