Done in by my own success....lol. The only time I've posted to the lists =
below anything about BGT was when there was something new to test or, =
when I remembered to mention it, when a test that might be timely was =
completed. I have to admit I really didn't foresee a situation where I'd =
be posting a new item for review every week. I always thought of BGT as =
an off shoot of these lists...kind of a side room off the main room =
where we got gear to test. It has gotten very time consuming and, =
apparently, annoying to the very people I wanted to help with the gear =
and info I found I could get. It started out easy...kind of a hobby. =
It's gotten out of hand I guess. I was getting a little worried about =
how I was going to be able to do any packing now that I'm pretty much =
healed from the bike/truck wreck that took me off the trail for almost 8 =
months and still maintain BGT. BGT has become a full time job and I =
didn't want one. I've just always been an over-achiever...lol. I'll stop =
posting calls for testers on other lists. I guess it's OK to respond to =
a question on other lists about a piece of gear we've reviewed on BGT if =
it comes up. Sorry about that....I'll be good from now on.....   ;o)

  Yeah Ron,=20

  I'm begining to agree.  Although it's hiker related and I admire =
