Include Rice w/ your Save-a-Dive kit?

Does anybody put rice in their Save-A-Dive kit?

If you're a photographer, it might be as essential as spare o-rings.

I learned about the trick of putting in soaked electronics (cell phones, cameras, etc) into a bag of rice, with the idea that the rice will act as a dessicant (sp?) and absorb the water and moisture... hopefully saving the electronics.

So, maybe a bag of rice would be a very useful addition to emergency dive gear! Does anybody do this?

That's something new that I got to hear. It is a very good trick to save the electronic. It is worth giving a try. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward for more such tricks that could prove helpful.

Callaway golf

Callaway golf
I studied different brands, went to demo days, and finally decided that Callaway discount golf clubs was going to be the brand of choice ishiner. I anxiously awaited the release of the x-20's. I had become a student of swings and studied my own and the dynamics of the swing itself.
