[at-l] Summer shirt

[greyowl@rcn.com (greyowl@rcn.com)]

If you are going to wear poly you will have to put up with the stink.  Ther=
e are a couple of things you can do to cut down the smell.  First is to sto=
re them with a fabric softener sheet.  Of course you will smell like fabric=
 softner (I think that it is an aphrodisiac for bears).  The other is to no=
t dry the stuff in a dryer.  Most synthetics will dry in 15 minutes hanging=
 off your tent rope.
