This is easily solved. :) 1. Conformal coat the tent after running flexible copper heating coils and hooking up to the nearest windfarm. 2.Have a tent that is made out of either wax impregnated material or jackets. 3. Wrap it in cling film. 4. Cart collapsible plastic Danish bricks around. (a new line for Ikea perhaps?) 5. Build an igloo - waterproof but maybe not drip proof. -- cdb, colin@btech-online.co.uk on 14/03/2009 Web presence: www.btech-online.co.uk Hosted by: www.1and1.co.uk/?k_id=7988359 -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
