Subject: Re: quick releases on harness

Only the worst shortsighted moron would advocate bullshit like this. A
harness that can break away is as dangerous and stupid as it gets, it
interferes with the correct palcement of the gear, and it is a solution
to a non-problem. 

Tom Mouth and Jim Mimms came up with this as one more effort to combat
DIR and the WKPP.
