I just made sure to frequently flush water through my hood, and then I didn't wear it for the second dive.

By the time that I hit the water on some of those days, my drysuit insulation is quite wet and I don't mean from a drysuit flood.

That time on the surface while waiting to get into the water and until you can get out of your drysuit must have been a torture invented in the Spanish Inquisition.

That pretty much sums up what it is like here. 90-95F air, devastatingly strong sun and then cooler water on the bottom (though usually not much below 65F).

I've dove dry when Walter has been in a bathing suit. I certainly did not overheat. Others may have but not everone will or I would have done so too.
While the theoretical discussion is interesting it all basically amounts to what you and your body can tolerate. Walter can not tolerate high temps yet I can. I can not tolerate low temps and Nicolle can. It is all what your body is acclimated too. Nicolle and Kim were both right in that respect.

Hey Bri ... they might have missed this in your drysuit class, but you aren't supposed to pee in it.
