I went hiking with ChatGPT
It left all navigation to me
I was feeling distressed
‘Cause my ChatGPS
Accessed maps from 1923.
This one made me laugh, and I immediately was reminded of the NAD27 datum. :-)
May 5, 2023 at 11:19 am #3780334So what does a limerick weigh?
There’s one in my pack yet it’s hard to say.
But since this is Backpacking Light
and spreadsheets tell us what’s right,
I’ll leave the poetry out today.
May 8, 2023 at 12:06 pm #3780553A Snow Leopard stole a new stove
Being held in an Ocelot trove
He got in a spat
With a big Bobcat
Who gave him the old heave ho.And, with apologies:
There once was a boy from Not-tuckett
Whose camp stove fell into a bucket
His limericks were bad
(Not a creative lad)
He hopes Jon Fong won’t just chuck it!May 8, 2023 at 5:39 pm #3780578I’m digging a cathole to poo
The cathole’s for me, folks, not you
It’s six inches deep
My poo for to keep
Then I wipe with a stick, and I’m through!At least, almost through I should say
Since I have to cover this bug buffet
First I water it down
Then stir all around
Add dirt, then get on with my day…May 28, 2023 at 4:02 pm #3782029The end of the contest is near
For a prototype that I hold so dear
A winner selected
The others rejected
And for one, they can celebrate with a beerJust a reminder, there are only a few days left to enter the contest. Best wishes!
May 29, 2023 at 6:49 am #3782071To make it clear
i don’t drink beer
now my rhymes you’ve seen
not to be mean
just give me the screen
forgive the abuse
i really have no use
not for it
as I have my kit
I’m sure it’s nice
give it to someone who’ll use it twice
May 31, 2023 at 12:08 pm #378226520, 20, 24 hours to go, I want to be sedated
This silly contest just might be, a bit over-rated
Design for the Soto
But only one proto

Thanks to everyone for entering the contest; it’s been fun and intersting.

Jun 2, 2023 at 6:23 pm #3782418Congrats are in order for Jerry!
On BPL he’s as sweet as a berry
He hikes in the rain
And never complains
When he’s near what can one be but merry?
CONGRATULATIONS, JERRY!!!

Proof that one should always read the bathroom wall :)
Jun 6, 2023 at 8:01 am #3782756Jerry,
Read your PM! send me your mail address so I can ship the prototype out to you.
Jun 6, 2023 at 4:56 pm #3782781just got back from trip. Sent you my info.
Thanks a lot Jon!
I’ll report back how well it works when I’ve used it
Jun 10, 2023 at 5:18 pm #3783067just received it in the mail. Thanks Jon. I’ll try it out within a few weeks.
Nice workmanship. Nice design.
Jul 24, 2023 at 4:25 pm #3785742and now I tried it, thanks for sending me this
nice workmanship – laser cut titanium? spot welded
it worked as advertised. A little fiddly to figure out how to install it the first time, but the second time easier.
I have this idea about comparing this to a couple other windscreens. Your design is the smallest possible of just the burner head, so it should weigh the least.
