    It makes just as much sense! That is pretty cool. ]:>
    That makes it much clearer, thanks!

        I guess I better start to practice my pitch then.

          This is Dan Kaminsky.

          OK: I *really* want to do the tank this year, *but* I might not be able to for medical reasons. I broke my elbow in Mid-June, and I've got a five inch scar from the surgery. I don't know if it'll fully close by Defcon, which means I can't commit to dunking yet. *sighs*

          So why am I posting? To encourage people to volunteer!

          1) The dunk tank is very fun. Especially drunk. Not that I'm ever drunk at Defcon. Not that there's a single person that believes that ;)
          2) Yes, the water is a little cold, but it's Vegas, and it's ridiculously hot out, so it actually feels pretty good.
          3) Your friends will dunk you. Your enemies will dunk you more. Your cause -- EFF -- wins either way. Score!
          4) Defcon's all about having fun and not taking things too seriously. That the seat will just randomly dump you into the water -- it's not a bug, it's a feature ;)

          Anyway, I hope to be able to do the tank for a second year, but if not -- volunteer, so I have you to dunk :)

            Do realize how much money you can raise if people think they will see blood in the water and hear you scream in pain? You're missing an opportunity here!

                  Yep -- I'd much rather turn the water into wine.
