[QUOTE="CAJW, post: 1167715, member: 1055"] Same here. When we see this, we just smile, shake our head and steer clear so we aren't witness to any pending skin grafts. So far, we've only had one guy ask at a stoplight why we're smiling. He didn't like the answer......, I guess he was expecting to hear that we liked his bike or wife beater. Here, Here! People don't think they're stupid, they just don't know, what they don't know. Experience, unfortunately is the great educator, but some times the price of education is very high. The only time I've ever offered an opinion on gear is when asked or when I'm teaching a MSF course. The analogy I've always used is, if you think your gear is good enough, go out to an asphalt parking lot on a 100+ degree day, lay down (face first) for about 15 minutes (average EMS response time) and see how that works for ya! If you burn, gear isn't cutting it. Simple, right? [/QUOTE]
