For what its worth, I didnt find anything in a google search about Kifaru or MountainSmith being boycotted. The only mention of kifaru at thebackpacker.com has to do with the field chairs....

Oh, getting testy now /images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

Look, Kevin, Ive known you for a few years and have no interest in a pissing contest with you. I read what you wrote, with comprehension,...

I read your 1433 post and I dont see how it answers wether or not you beleive that if Tim had any support he would not have presented it by now.

Also, HomerDave posted the question "perhaps tim...

Kevin, do you HONESTLY think that if he had ANY support for his claims, that he would not have provided them by now?

But ya know what? Just for the giggle factor....

Tim Sundles, can you please...

I think its pretty rediculous that anyone should threaten to boycott Kifaru or Patrick Smith for supporting free speech. Patrick is easily one of the most professional, honest, good hearted men Ive...

Im sorry Kevin, smarter than what? I must not be that smart if I think that anything but absolute, impericale (sp?), evidence would ever convince anyone here of anything they choose to disagree with....

All he would need is one to answer the question.

Not when Sundles says "nearly all". Wouldnt he have to contact "nearly all" outfitters to counteract such a claim? Wouldnt contacting as many...

Actually, if you read the letter he wrote, it quie obviously is in no way attempting to curtail ANYONEs free speech. Hes notifing the various Canadian Outfitters and their organizations of what is...

Well, in the first quote, it appears that it was written as a charicature of those people, who given the option to find shelter or prepare locally, instead seem to had chosen to treat the storm as a...

Airsupport, I think you might have taken those quotes out context.

Neither quote was anti-preparation.

Heres a neat motorcycle

Its a 2 wheel drive sidecar morotcycle. It has a transshaft running to the sidecar wheel, so its basically an on-demand trike.

Razorsharp... Im pretty sure you missed the point, either that or its rather weak spin. I think its pretty obvious that the "X factor" is a result of, not a goal of, a diverse, healthy, ecosystem.

Razorsharp, I think Dale answered the question of "why should we" pretty well.

Not to sound too elementary school here but, you cant have Wilderness without WILD.

Ive had good experience with the overbag concept.

FeatheredFriends has a layering system for some of their sleeping bags. One thing they recommend is, if your going to use a WPB layer, put it on...

"Whoa! Diesel motorcycles? Anybody care to elaborate on that? "

Theres a bike out there that is not only hybrid electric, but runs on multifuel... it can process anything from biodiesel to...

If not now, when? Theres no time like the present.

Thats a long way of saying... what?

Yes, I saw the quotation marks, and I knew what you were trying to say... I just dont agree with what your trying to say.

Why? Because if proper managment...

I think a more appropriate phrasing is that the only thing not "protected" is the wants and wishes of some men.

Man as a species is quite well protected... It just so happens that some people dont...

Wolves disembowel and eat their prey live because unlike lions and bears, they dont have the physical size to throttle their prey to death.

Actually, disembowelment is extremely common among the...

Tim, if I didnt know any better, Id almost think that one stung a little.

Razorsharp, the use of the term "lies and deciept" is pretty broad. It doesnt specifically mean that Sundles lied, it could just mean that he is reposting the lies of others... which by his own words...

Kevin, lets be fair... He never called him a liar, he said things are "untrue", and furthermore, he "lives there" which seems to be a valid arguement for other places in the country :rolleyes:
