I just meant in general when it happens usually something else I learn. 

On another board a while ago a guy asked a question about having a dump truck drop a load a stone in his yard and some chimed in "watch out the truck doesn't bust up your sidewalk."   And the guy replied "I'm not a retard I know".  But all i was thinking was wow great advice about the sidewalk. 

Learning is living. And water is life

BTW, in using sunlight to sanitize water the container should be made of a clear material, at least on the one side you expose to the sunlight.  Actually most commercial water bottles are ideal for using for sanitizing water with sunlight.

Yes, most people who argue for pumps are arguing form the backpacker mind set. And just aren't getting their head around the notion of an emergency disposable filter. 

Like I said before. For a crash bag, the lifestraw is an excellent fit. 

OR the sawyer equivalent. They sell a kit with a cheap flat pack squeeze bottle.

Yep, I use these. Light and compact, and they filter a lot of water. 

I have a couple Sawyer Mini's and they are definitely good to go.
