I have tried it on more than one occasion. It is a skill I certainly lack. 4 out 5 HD foil cooking containers of mine spring a leak. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> You also (if doing anything more than heating a little water) have to be very careful to have enough heat on the foil to cook and/or boil but not so much that you burn through the foil. It's a delicate balance. It's something Im no good at but I keep practicing every other weekend when I'm camping. Until I master it (if ever) it's gonna have to be MP1 tabs for purification and the PSK tin for heating a little water if needed. Not too concerned about food but if Im cookin squirrel I skewer him I suppose.

I have tried it, its unreliable the problem is you have to unfold it and cook in it and it does not work every time. You risk tearing holes in the tinfoil because we pack it so tight in the psk.

Ooooh a new knive from SOG. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> That Micron is cool and the price is certainly cool too! It looks like a fixed blade but they have it listed as a folder. <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Brian, mcse, that's kind of how I thought it would go with Aluminum Foil. Have you tried the thicker stuff, that they make disposable cookie trays with? I bought a couple of those cookie trays, I'm going to cut off the edge so I have a plain sheet, and I'll see how small it folds up.

there is afoil tray supplied with the BCB go-pack. After repeated folding a small hole appeared. But suprisingly it didn't leaked wenn i filed it again ! Guess the surface tention of the water was strong enough to "patch" small "leaks".

The confusion comes from the fact that in English, the plural of "you" is "you". This is clearly inadequate and confusing, and virtually everyone more than 150 miles from Buckingham Palace recognizes that it is (those who live within 150 miles of Buckingham Palace seem mostly to relish ANY obfuscation the language causes).

In southern states, this has resulted in "you all" and "y'all", whereas in parts of the rust belt the proper form is "all youse", often contracted to just "youse".

Both forms are, of course, painful to those who speak the "pure" version of the language. Most of those who are stuck without a decent plural form of the word seem to feel that it serves them right.

It's even worse than that, PL. It seems that in some parts of the south, "y'all" is singular, resulting in the plural form "all y'all".
