I'm starting a thread on #HammockCamping...
Feel free to comment and even tell me where I'm wrong, or if there's a better solution.
I'll start with the big one... how many lines/ropes/straps should it take to fully pitch a #HammockTent?
I have a strong bias that the answer is no more than four!
I propose a general "Four Point Hammock Suspension Rule" (two straps for the hammock itself (with bug net), no more than two for the rainfly)
Note that the fly does not need to be diamond shaped, this is a general rule-of-thumb.
My point is: if you have more lines you increase complexity, increase time pitching and repacking, decrease access, and have more things to trip over. 
Put another way: If you get the same performance with fewer lines, that is a good thing. 
If more lines are required to achieve the same performance, that may indicate a weaker design.

If you wish to gain knowledge of the forms of things, begin with the detail and only move from one detail to another when you have fixed the first firmly in your memory and become well acquainted with it.

The introduction of new technology is always disruptive to old markets, and particularly to those copyright owners whose works are sold through well-established distribution mechanisms. History has shown that time and market forces often provide equilibrium in balancing interests, whether the new technology be a player piano, a copier, a tape recorder, a video recorder, a personal computer, a karaoke machine or an MP3 player.

Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way -- that is not easy.

This is a raw, unedited 7-minute film of my overnight winter hammock trip. There’s no music, no voiceover, and no polished edits. Just the sounds of snow, waves, fire and camp life.
