Some people come here for my Fortran page. Others want my PhD thesis titled Quantum Waveguide Theory (which is available from the UWA library) or my Honours thesis titled Quantum Chaos in Second Harmonic Generation - Stu.

How to initiate a cart wheel

Start off with 4m surf. Catch a wave just as its breaking (you know, when your boat is vertical on the wave). Let the wave throw you through the air. Just as your nose hits the water, flick your hips... and its initiated. The bonus of this method is that the first few wheels are completely free as the wave dumps over you. Throw a few extra wheels on the end, a few flat spins in the foam... and you'll look like a pro in no time.

Oh... don't worry about the ear-to-ear welt under your chin, that was just the wave forgetting to undo your helmet as it tries to remove it.
