GrumpyGord member Registered: 01/05/02 Posts: 945 Loc: Michigan	All of my gear is good because 1: it is mine 2: it is paid for 3: it works for me and I am satisfied with it. Anything beyond that is irrelevant. If I go out into different conditions than I now face I may have to upgrade but for now it is good.
