Onwards to Pulau Weh & Nuremberg

The one article I'll keep from this weekend's papers is apparently not available on line: an article in the Globe travel section on the fabulous scuba-diving off the remote Indonesian island of Pulau Weh. Of course, all these fabulous-diving/remote-island pieces are exactly the same, so just take this as an invitation to construct your own tropical reverie instead.... Still, did you know that there's something called the megamouth shark, a prehistoric looking deepwater monster discovered only in 1976 and sighted only 42 times since? Pulau Weh's got 'em. (Now and then.)

While we're on the subject of stuff you and I didn't know, follow the links to the golden hats. (is that cool or what? don't you want one??) This is why it's worth reading even right-wing blogs now and then, if the right-winger is sufficiently idiosyncratic.
