### Ok, so, in all good humor: you guys are *so* all wet. Gear
matters hugely. Don't think so? Then you haven't been reading
this thread very well.

Still don't think so? Then you haven't heard/experienced the
frenzy with which throughhikers who heard "Gear Doesn't
Matterrrrr!" descend upon Walasi-Yi from the blowing heights of
Blood Mtn.

*Still* still don't think so? Then you've not seen Shane effuse
on the Mithryl pack, or seen Ron's SixMoonDesigns website.
C'mon, guys.

Gear choices matter, and hugely.
