I don't know what it is called, but there is a kind of waterproof that we
field biologists use, and it can be run through a laser printer.  I used
to photocopy artciles that I had to read for a seminar I was enrolled in
on this kind of paper - then print my deco tables on the back of the last
page of the article.  That way I could read the paper and do my deco all
in one-shot.  I think I did this once on a dive with Dennis, if you don't
believe me.  I still have the articles (they still have some salt crystals
on them - no kidding!)
