Comanche,

You may have been musing, but you bring up a few good points.....just so I'll know, how many angels CAN dance on the head of a pin? <img src="images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I won't argue the dykes, I just figure that if I'm going to be pushing a fish hook through my skin anyway, it won't be significantly more painful to push it far enough to cut with my Leatherman. My kitchen sink folds, BTW. How do like the dehydrated one? <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

It had not occured to me that an inflatable splint could be used as a water carrier or PFD. Where's that :feeling sheepish smiley: when you need it? <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Take care,

Andy
