I found that a pack I bought from REI weighed more than a pound more than the 
advertised weight. I was upset, especially after trying so hard to knock 
ounces off my base weight, but I used it anyway. It's a good fitting pack. 
I've considered Kelty packs in the past since they're such a venerable 
institution and will strongly consider the Cloud as my next pack.
   On flat feet. At my Navy preinduction physical, the group was told to get 
their feet wet and make an imprint. I was one of a few singled out as having 
flat feet. I was nearly rejected from joining the Navy because I was told 
that I could suffer extreme pain if forced to stand or march for long periods 
of time (how often do sailors march, anyway?). Needless to say, the 
conception was wrong. Now, it seems flat feet like my triple Es are 
considered somewhat of an asset, I presume, because there are no archs to 
have problems with.  Mountain Dave
