I'm an avid programmer, enjoy creating things, enjoy a good puzzle and especially enjoy foxing people with a Java puzzle now and again!

Outside of my coding life, I have a number of other interests, including outdoors activities such as hiking / geocaching / letterboxing. I'm also fond of music - I enjoy listening to it as well as playing the piano and violin.

@DominykasMostauskis Very hard to predict - the only sure fire way is to look up information beforehand. As for dealing with being caught in one, completely different question!

comment What is the safest way to purify water?
@BenCrowell You may be better debating that point in this thread (outdoors.stackexchange.com/questions/1117/…) - I'm not an expert on this matter, I just choose to follow those who know better than me, and many have taught me to boil for a minute or two. I know of no microbes that can survive that temperature, then again I know of no microbes at all off the top of my head! You may well be right and it may well be overkill, and perhaps if I was really short on fuel I'd think otherwise.
