So it turns out that, after all the hype, River Rat John D'Aquino had to postpone his Sunday scuba dive for TEDx into the Gowanus Canal due to below freezing temperatures that may have compromised his breathing equipment.

Whatever was there, we were able to see a little and show that to the audience." [NYDN; previously]
