Date: Mon, 03 Aug

Dear Mr. Bramlet,

My browser picked up a piece by you on hypothermia. My wife saw a segment on
Oprah once where a park ranger said something about camping being dangerous
with children under six years old in any conditions due to condensation
induced hypothermia in a tent. Neither of us had ever heard anything about it
before, and now that we have children we are trying to find out if there is
any danger in us going. Do you have any information, or know of any sources
we could look up? So far we have not found it mentioned in any books on
camping. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Dan Hilsman
