Oh yes they do :-p Divers use Argon for suit inflation, because of the differing gas density compared to air, it keeps you warm longer. (heat doesn't pass through argon as easily)

Hello Nigel, Fancy seeing you in here. :o)
I thought you had a bad starting Audi not a Landrover. :o)
-- Andy
Never had an Audi... I had a Passat that I destroyed by putting too many J cylinders in it.... I've had the P38 for two and a bit years now. It just about carries the dive gear but I might need to upgrade to a 3.5ton flatbed if I grow any more gear.
The current project is a new Air Suspension computer. The current one sucks but embeded computers are business here so once I have figured the light driver system things will work again and it will report errors rather than throwing a BSOD and giving up.

Heat won't pass from a cooler to a hotter... you can try it if you like but you'd far better notter.
'Cos heat is work and work is heat, and that's a physical law.

So an argon suit reduces work?
Sold!
Ah, someone is not a Flanders & Swann fan :)

Do they do argon inflated swivel chairs?
:-)

Do they do compressed argon *powered* swivel chairs... I can think of a few people at work I'd fit that kit to. Top floor, aim at window, knock valve off.
No, but I've found the song you're on about;
Passat, Audi, It's all VW to me. All I remember was jump starting the thing in Stoney car park for you. :o) LOL at the air suspension woes.

Oh yes! I can feel a new sport coming into being...
NIGE! Bring some CO2 fire jobbies to the unofficial would you?
I can feel a challenge coming on... ;-)
(If I can wait that long. We replace our CO2s each year - cheaper than having them rechecked/filled. Can sort of see something interesting for the neighbours outside Poggle Wood tomorrow lunchtime!)
What a hoot! Next time I work for a company that decides to fold almost immediately I think I know how I'll while away my last weeks.
One of those "written only for windows" things I'm afraid, but I get the gist!
It's only a pic, not a vid, and shows perfectly here on Firefox under Debian and FC4.
"Auckland police could hardly believe their eyes when they pulled over a vehicle to check its rego.
It wasn't a car, a van, or even a bike. It was simply engineering apprentice Clinton Cossey taking his motorised couch for a spin.
"I was actually just down here relaxing on my couch, as you do at the beach, and then I sort of thought there was a helicopter hovering over me. I was like it can't be for me I better move on...as I drove home it was following me all the way...then a police car pulled out and three of them jumped out."
Just makes me reckon I should forward my plans for the great move down under (EMB, convince me at Christmas would you - actually, convince Charlotte).
No, there was an associated video too, that wouldn't run, although the mplayer plugin had a good crack at it.
I've seen a few similar stories on couches and armchairs in this country, no need to go down under for motorised furniture ;-)
I saw a wooden boat on the A34 near Newbury once too, moving under its own power. Looked like it had the innards of a Robin Reliant in it somewhere.

mind there's a video article as well, showing the couch in motion. Crashed mozilla mind, but only after playing the vid.
