Jeeeeesh guys, Tom, Buzz and others,

The easiest load lightener?  Get an assistant ! :-) 

Hell she can pack a ton of stuff and as long as I feed her twice a day
she works like a mule.  Keeps the cameras loaded and knows what lens I
need before I ask.  She's got a great personality, attractive, smart,
drives fast and drinks little. :-) Heck what more could you ask for in a
load lightener? ;-)  Beats the hell out of any Domke bag I've ever seen.

And she never talks back! ;-)  And that's a key point! ;-)
