How do you keep your hands cold when diving these fridgid northern
waters? A buddy of mine recently got her hands on (or in) a pari of DUI
dry gloves. They look like industrial electrician's orange work gloves
with a Michael Jackson liner and what looks like a Viking drysuit cuff
to complete the picture. Looks as though they'd be a cinch to put
together.... But she still has problems even when diving argon....so do
I but my gloves are the lobster/donut neoprene kind....I am thinking
about a do-it-myself project using the DUI as a template. Any thoughts
on alternatives....like handwarmers?

Some one asked me if my hands get cold normally...they don't just after
an hour or so in freezing cold water....why didn't I move to Florida?
