Pelican Peli desiccant pack, as sold by Vistek – $21.99.
40g Silica gel dehumidifier from Lee Valley – $6.95.
Can you spot the difference?
(and I’m not particularly picking on Vistek; they’re as cheap as anyone for this product when sold as a photo accessory.)
Just saw someone getting their collar felt at Union Station for crossing the tracks – $110 fine.
I don’t particularly understand why my industry gets singled out for killing wildlife, and having to carry out lengthy studies where other equally guilty plants and installations don’t. But apparently, radar ‘saves bats at wind farms’.
So, if this is really true, and it were installed, would it be a bat mitzvah?
Things I Saw in Vancouver – and yes, there are flowers in bloom. Beware of the cute sea otters, though they’re not quite up there with the Oh Noes! otter.

I’d been suffering from some winter eczema on the blade of my right hand. It meant (like, if I wanted to) I couldn’t karate chop, but I could probably give someone a pretty good karate sandpapering.
