Pardon me. Stabilized Fuel ? What is this?

Treatment for fuel that will be stored for long periods of time. It keeps it "Fresh". It is used regularly in Marine applications.

HUMAN_____ ,
Thanks for the info !
One thing I must share.
In 1967 I had the time of my life to go to PHILMONT. INCYDK that is a big time BSA experience.
One of the most useful things I LERN'T there was to
ALWAYS keep a roll of DENTAL FLOSS handy.
Next best thing nex' ta' DUCK TAPE.
Inexpensive, contained, and ready to go fer' anything needin' strang'.
Just a thought.
OBTW DO NOT TRY TO FLOSS WIT' DUK TAPE.
Taste BAD

As this discussion developed...I can't help but be encouraged that even through the funny looks and comments by others around us...
I seriously doubt I will ever see anyone I know on this website standing on their rooftops waving for someone to help them...
We'll be 250 miles or more away, relaxing and sipping iced tea when all hockey-puck breaks out...
Notice the tagline I've had on my profile for a while...

Top Quality for sure. It has some features you may be interested in.
If you go to the You Tube site ,search for
Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack Review.

Take a look.

I have wanted to carry something like the Maxpedition bag since I was a kid. I know I saw the old t.v. show of Daniel Boone with a "man bag" and hoped it would catch on... but alas, it didn't

As much stuff as I carry in my pockets every day I would be well served with any one of the Maxpedition bags. They look to be very well made and extremely functional.

I purchased my Maxpedition gear from
http://www.securityandsafetysupply.com
They seemed to have the best prices.
I just fitted my Sig 229 to the holster in the bag. Works well!
Did you watch the video?

yep, I've been looking at the Maxpedition site for several months, and really wanting to order one. I just can't think of many places I would actually carry it (even though I really want to).
edit to add: I just checked the link I had for the Maxpedition - versipack, and found it to be a dead link.... so thanks for a new link

I just found that I have several stops to make before I go to Wal-Mart.
I was about to walk out the door with my hands so full o'stuff that I couldn't open the door.
I think it is TIME for the maiden journey of the Maxpedition !
include:
cell phone
girlfriends garage door opener
her house key
my keys
sunglasses
pen and pencil
shopping list
Wal-Mart is about to be introduced to the Jumbo Versipack.
Wish me luck.
