    Wayward Whales Photos

    Camera body is the EOS 10D, the one I bring to meetings. Lens is 100-400mm 1:4.5 - 5.6 "L" with image stabilizer. That's one of those ubiquitous white lenses you see in sporting events.

    Careful leaving ANYTHING visible in your car...

    Sorry, Art. Maybe I should have posted a warning I heard last week on KGO, "hide your navi mounts". Apparently these type of break-ins are rampant. Hopefully State Farm will take care of you. They've got a good reputation. -Jim

    Wayward Whales Photos

    I went whale shooting today, and would like to share the pics with you. What a treat to see these two from a ridge behind my house. The calf sure jumped with joy (I think) after swimming under the Carquinez bridge. Hopefully they'll make it safely to the ocean. Here's the link...

    Electricity (DC) to enhance coral growth?

    I actually was born and raised in Bacolod City in the same island where they're doing this experiment. I'll try to check it out, time permitting, when I go back for a visit in a few months.

    My Other Project

    I've never considered myself a tree hugging enviromentalist, just a concerned citizen trying to reduce my carbon footprint. The solar array was an easy step, since most of the work was done by contractors and close to half the cost was borne by the great State of California. So now I'm kicking...

    Spectrapure Club Specials

    I've got an on-line TDS meter (group buy from way back) with 2 input leads, installed post membrane and the other post DI. Both register zero. I use pen-type TDS for validation. Pretty consistent, so I trust the on-line completely.

    Spectrapure Club Specials

    Thanks, Arnold, that's the opposite of Buckeye's, so I'll install accordingly. Note on these pre-filters: it's already been mentioned, but let me clarify: Remove the hose between the 1 micron cannister and the RO unit and let the water flow out. I let ~5 gal go (has black carbon residue)...

    Mr. Urchin is Back

    Many moons ago Greg65 gave me a diadema urchin. After doing it's job in my tank, I passed it on to Nukeproof, hmmm, about a year ago? Mission accomplished, so Pat asked if I wanted an urchin. YES, and he dropped one off this morning, turned out to be the one I gave him last year. Way to go!

    FREE black eggcrates

    I've got 3 black eggcrates, 24" x 14" with 2" legs which were formerly plenums. If you know what a plenum is, then you know how old these eggcrates are. They're a bit brittle, but can still be used in seascapes. In fact, they're still wrapped in nylon screen, as in a Jaubert plenum. FREE...
