swim gloves look like they are effective; I think making them roll up as part of wetsuit sleeves might be nifty

How about the same for flippers? |

Cute video, but not really needed as a reference. |

The other question is HOW, halfway, are these gloves to be made? It might be possible to put Velcro in all the glove-webbing areas of floppy sleeve extensions, say, but without something like that, this "idea" is just a wish. |

That's one thing I never understood. I
went on a scuba course, and said the
word "flippers" to some old git, and he
looked at me like I'd just called his
grandmother a pole-dancer. "What ever
you do," he said "never ever call them
flippers, understand?" He was so
serious that I almost peed myself
laughing. What is it about the word
"flippers" - is there a dark secret in the
history of scuba diving that involved a
diver and a dolphin or something? |

Well, i never knew that. That's the new thing i learned today (apart from something about Withania somnifera) and it's 2355 now. It just got in before midnight. |
