Subject: Re: Lightweight-gear comparison page

Thanks all for the positive feedback. You've given me the boot to the
butt I needed to check all the 'main' links on that page. Wow, the
web changes quite fast!

SGT Rock: Updated your review links too, thanks for the heads up. You
have an excellent site there at http://www.hikinghq.net/ I just
discovered your review of the Hennessy A-Sys.

- dspellman2002: It is a shame that Ray Jardine removed his 'Project'
pages :-( I loved those pages. THe Stephenson info came from their
web site, though I may have got it from a magazine. Took out the note
about the GVP G4 pack plans being an older version.

- vkdeal: I'll look into the Kifaru ParaTipi and ParaTarp later when
I have the time. The Stephenson DAM is on the very expensive side and
not very lightweight, though I've hrread that it is 'some comfy'.

- Thanks for the good feedback also to dladigin, ratagonia,
Bushwacker, Jerry G, Aaron (I've got stove links on my home page),
Mike V, snowjoe11, and Philip M.
