G'Day Matt and Peter and Paddlewise generally,

Looking up Who's Who? Desperate measures!! I don't suppose either of you
would like to send in a short Bio and/or photo? It almost goes without
saying you're both major contributors and I'm sure people would be
interested.

Would anyone else like to send in a Who's Who entry?

Who's Who is a public website hosted by Paddlewise and accessible to anyone
on the internet.

Just send your details in plain text as part of your email to
mailto:rebyl_kayak_at_iprimus.com . Send anything you like so long as its
vaguely related to paddling and not illegal or immoral (fattening is OK).
Attach small pictures too if you wish. We tend not to include addresses or
telephone numbers and use a simple code for email addresses for privacy. A
lot of people use a standard format but its not essential - any form will
do. I've given an example below - It's a figment of my tortured mind.

All the best, PeterO

I) SHORT BIO:
Born in Thebes 1000BC. Left town in a hurry after quarrelling with Hera (she
was just a friend, honest!). After working hard all my life, retired to
Herculaneum (liked the name) and Pliny the Elder taught me to paddle in the
Bay of Naples, but I was always faster than him. Left town in a hurry in 79
AD and paddled to Timbuctoo. Have worked variously as tanner, pest
exterminator, poacher, pig farmer, stable hand, hydraulic engineer and
matador. After that I engaged in a life of crime - But I'm semi retired now
and a reformed character. These days paddle around in an unusual vessel
given me by my mate Sol. Have just recently subscribed to Paddlewise. Would
have subscribed when I first learned to kayak but the stone tablets kept
bouncing back with "mailbox unavailable" messages.
