    Altoids.

    Great list. Some time ago, SkyOwl asked me to get some - for the tins. This must be what he had in mind.

    Another mystery solved!

    No, he hates them. Unless they are the cinnamon ones, then he'll eat them. Of course, I had to buy the peppermint ones.

    The girls bags are packed with 2 of these tins. One is a small first aid kit. Just band aids and wipes for small cuts and scrapes. I'm always refilling these after a hike. The other is a small fire kit with fat wood, pj cotton balls, lighter and a box of matches.

    I have several. One has a home made 40 meter transceiver and another has an 80 meter transceiver. I built a CW keyer in one. They work great and take up no room.
    A government that can give you everything you need is also strong enough to take it away!

    Good deal. The possibility for use is only limited to ones imagination.
