[at-l] Silk long undies, bear scat, and hot buttered rum

[Frank Looper]

I've got a set of Patagonia Capilene #2 long-johns that I've worn for 4
years now. That would be my recommendation. A little more expensive, but
these probably still have a couple more years in them. Silk will almost
certainly wear out long before Capilene.
