[pct-l] Calories--Joy of Web

["Brooks Hull" <bhull@CA-F1.umd.umich.edu>]

When I have mentioned to local backpackers the idea of carrying 
oil/butter as an efficient source of calories, I have been laughed at 
or dismissed as nuts.  I was nervous about mentioning it on this 
list.

Instead of laughter, I got a whole series of thoughtful and helpful 
ideas from people who have hiked long distances.

The Web is a joy.
