[pct-l] Glorified Zippo Wins

["Reynolds, Tom" <reynolds@ilan.com>]

Finding propane/butane canisters at the average resupply point is
problematical. I am not advocating their use for a thruhiker.

My tests are designed to qualify propane/butane stoves for winter camping
and emergency use for winter dayhiking. I am going snowshoeing in Yosemite
and want something in my pack that will boil water if I somehow become
disabled and need to bivouac overnight.
