Well, as uni is one of my very favourite you better get be up for it 
next time we see each other!

Actually, I think my predilection for these thing goes back to a 
photo related incident. In the 70's I was taking a scuba course, and 
for one of our ocean dives we went up Howe Sound, which has amazing 
underwater life. I'd done my dive, and had climbed up onto the roof 
of the top cabin of the boat. Painted plywood. Another fellow had 
been collecting sea urchins for a while, and had left a gunny sack 
full of them on top of the cabin where I was. I was taking pictures, 
when a swell came and heaved the boat. What with the water and the 
painted plywood, I slipped and had a quick choice to make. Go into 
the water with my camera, or step on the gunny sack for traction and 
'save' myself. I chose the latter, and I'm still not sure I did the 
right thing.

I spent the next hour on the boat, and the next day at home picking 
spines out of my foot. A number broke off inside my foot and got 
infected.

I've enjoyed eating them ever since.
