[pct-l] Tent color

[Karen Borski <kborski@yahoo.com>]

I prefer a light-colored tent that provides a cheery atmosphere inside.
 My Walrus is white and provides great natural lighting for reading. 
However, if you like the cave feeling or are just going to sleeping in
it and not reading or hanging out, then color might not be as
important.  Also keep in mind that dark colors will absorb more heat,
while light colors will stay cooler, which may be an advantage or
disadvantage depending on season.
