[at-l] Frogg Toggs vs. nylon windshell

[DTimm65344@aol.com (DTimm65344@aol.com)]

Somewhere in the deep recesses of a closet in my house is a Tyvek jacket I 
received from work (safety prize or something).  It's never occurred to me to 
try it for backpacking... I may have to try it as it weighs nothing.  If I 
can find it, I'll post label information.
