    OS, when we used to fly from Houston to Singapore it was around 24 hours from door to door, so probably looking at least 16-20 hours flying.

    I fiddled with my 1st homemade alcohol stove some more this morning. I do not get it. It runs good and all. I guess my expectations were too high. Then I looked online for amount of fuel needed per boil for an efficient one. 2oz per boil? That times 16 equals 2lbs. We will be in the woods and average of 8 days at a time on our Maine walk and hope to be able to boil water morning and night. I see no weight savings here even if I had one that worked fantastic. I think I am done with that experiment.

    For you... any one you want it to be. For me... humble pie is the one I could benefit from the most. I have bad genes. We think we are all that and a bag of chips. The 3 minute rule helps to hide much of it. What I apply via delay on here, I sometimes struggle to apply in real life. So, I'll pick Pumpkin for you (the healthiest) and humble for me (the neediest).

    You missed the Bible study last night. We have very patient members in the Café. We are very tolerant of each other. I will try to not highjack the Café for that purpose too often.
