    Some of our friends here don't use them, either.

    OK, for Crash and Rick....More clumsy forgetful and tired than usual (you know, if that's possible with you guys)
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    The many layers Gene (Erunkis) wears is appropriate for sleeping. If he gets too hot during activity he can take off a layer, which is the whole point of wearing layers. I think this point was missed during the discussion.

    No...the point that was missed is if it's going to be down in the 20's I'M not going to be out there. I've worked outside in that weather all I care to. That's why I have a fireplace and a television.

    Sleeping out in -40F....ROTHFLMAO. Yeah, right, like you'll EVER catch me doing that. Can you say Marriot?
