[at-l] Tuckerization

[bakpakr@planetcable.net (Bob Wardecker)]

Kool Appreciate the info
I had a PuR it lasted me about 1 week b4 the pump part died on me and the
company was of no help so I am rather dubious of them although I like the
simplicity of there design it is just my confidence level is not that high
with the company. As for no filter I got giardia at one time an experience I
wish not to repeat.
