Inventor of the neoprene wet suit dies.

Found this news item link on another forum. Always something you didn't know. In my case that's a lot. Hugh Bradner | Times Online Obituary

Think most of us owe this guy our thanks and remembering our humanity our condolenses to his family.

92 years old, and what a remarkable life! I know that I am grateful for his research and efforts. Cheers, and thanks, sir

Re: Inventor of the neoprene wet suit dies.

Well done that man! Can't imagine spearing without the neoprene wetsuit in UK waters.

Also in the news today...
