    What they hell are you even going on about? Who said you don't have to follow rules? All I did was post a benefit to having Mylar bags nothing else. My comment doesn't incinerate anything, nor is it hinting to anything.
    The comment I said has nothing at all to do with anything you just posted. So stop adding unrelated things into taking general statements.

    Alligator (a site admin, by the way) explicitly quoted your post where you said your system "doesn't require a bear canister because interestingly enough believe it or not, animals cannot smell through Mylar."

    Perhaps you should reconsider your attack?

    I'm not even sure you understand the words you are writing. You said using mylar bags would not require a bear cannister because the animals can't smell the food. I isolated your statement in the quote. If that's not what you meant to write, please clarify. I also suggest you check your tone.

    I did not mention incineration. I suggested that a bear could smell an opened mylar bag in your trash bag.
