Didn't mean it as a criticism, just exposing my lack of knowledge of the Andean mountain range

Well I believe R Vasey is the fictional village in the TV series "A League of Gentlemen", but I don't know what or who the other one is.

looks like an Ozzie musician, funny I thought it would be pommie and that the league of gentlemen may have been taking the piss. it would appear to be a co-incidence??

It seems as if there hasn't been any activity here for a couple of days, so I'll post a question.

Two days ago, while diving a coral reef, I came across a sea snake. Sea snake venom is much more toxic than the venom of land snakes. Perhaps 10 times as toxic as a King Cobra. I was less than a meter away from the snake, in open water, yet I wasn't worried in the slightest about getting bitten. It was alive and swimming and there was nothing between me and he (she?) to keep it away from me. I wasn't drunk (or stupid) yet I felt safe.

Why?

Nope. Hale and hearty, swimming merrily along.

But THIS is the answer I was looking for, or at least, a big part of it. Besides usually being unable to bite through a wet suit because of short fangs, and having a relatively small mouth to begin with, the sea snake can adjust the volume of it venom injected with each bite, and unless it thinks it can eat its victim, won't waste venom. Although extremely deadly, very few fatalities actually occur, and most of them are small children playing the snakes that wash up on the beach and the kids get bitten on the fingers.

Sneaky, I should have remembered that you were related. Take it away!
