      You use it to get WET.  Therefore it'll always be considered a WET SUIT by always correct USA

        No.  A dry suit keeps you dry.  A wet suit is useless for commercial work in our climate.

          there is definitely a distinct difference between a wet suit and a dry suit.

            And then there's the slightly damp suit.

              A wet suit keep you dry as well.  Maybe not for G's climate but it does the same thing.

                Not sure why, but I could listen to chicks talking about how much they hate Rush for hours. It cracks me up for some reason. Has anyone ever met a girl who didn't hate, or perhaps who even liked, Rush? These chicks at this bar are going nuts (one of their tunes is playing).

                Think it, be it.

                  Nope.  A wet suit keeps you wet and heats up the trapped layer of water (or pee if you need a rapid warm up), a dry suit keeps you dry….

                          I just put on a jacket, maybe jog in place… Stand next to a radiator, go inside... But to each his own. Pretty sure pissing yourself is a great way to create a layer of stinky ice round these here parts.

                            NP - come to UK at this time of year to dive, and you'll be bitching that a dry suit isn't warm enough…..

                                G is right.  Dry suit is completely dry.  Need it to dive in cold/icy water (if ice diving is your thing).
                                It's cold in Toronto today.  -21 C and wind chill -32 C!

                                    That was seemingly their main point of consternation/rage with the ongoing music (I think the name of the loathsome song on the PA might be "Limelight"). They were like "god that screeching is fucking terrible!" I still chuckle recalling it.

                                            And for rush, it's hard to have the best drummer in the world, and maintain ranks as one of the worst bands in the world…..you have to give them that
