[at-l] Newb on the loose - the questions begin

On topic:

I can't recommend a bag liner because I haven' t used one, but I  
understand they extend the life of your sleeping bag by protecting it  
from, essentially, you.  So yay liners.

I do recommend fleece sleeping socks and a hat for in the bag.  Makes  
a lot of difference.  I think a hat that ties on somehow might be  
best, not that I've used one.  I've only used regular hats and I  
never know where I'm going to find it when I wake up.  (Over my eyes,  
somewhere random in my hammock, etc.)

I have a wind-barrier type thing that I purchased to go around the  
hammock, and I find that it works extremely well over the bag if I  
sleep in a shelter.  It must add 10 or 15 degrees worth of protection.
