By the time I had even heard of Colin Fletcher, I had been hiking in BC for 12 years, backpack camping for several years and working alone in remote wilderness for several years.

I learned how to carry items because I HAD to do it as a part of my Forest Service employment in regions such as the BC-Alaska border before the highway that leads to Alaska was built. I often carried my water cans, propane cylinders and wood outside of my pack, does that make ME ...stupid...?

I agree with Ed, go to Iraq or Afganistan and tell some of the troops how they should carry their gear; I am sure that they would really appreciate your "expertise".......
