To the further horror of ultralighters, I also keep the cardboard tube in the center!  It has been a excellent fire starter more than once.  TP doesn't start fires worth a damn, especially if it's damp out.</p>\n";

echo "<p>Now TP is all wonderful and good, but for true back country luxury I take diaper wipes.  Nothing short of a bath works better at removing sweat and stink, priceless if you get the trots, cleans your hands before eating, and disposable in a firepit.</p>\n";

echo "<p>Finally nothing is better on a mildly sunny day then getting to camp, soaking your hot feet in the river and then scrubbing them with a wipe and putting on dry wool socks.  Ahhhhh.</p>\n";

echo "<p>As for weight, I take 2-3 per day.  They weigh about 120g for 20-25 plus a ziplock bag, so 3-4 grams each.  Cut out a granola bar for every week of wipes and your good.  Or a pair of socks, since your feet are being cleaned each night.</p>\n";
