This was an interesting choice. We'll see how it works out. I don't 
mind carrying water to soak 1/3 of a cup of veggies and 1/2 a cup of 
dried meat instead of canned tuna and enough fuel to cook for 20 
minutes. The water load is "to cover" so it less than a pint.

        WELL, YOU AND LYNN WHELDON -- SEEMS YOU'RE IN GREAT COMPANY!
