    It isn't only about being over weight. The fact that you are over weight gives means they pull you around back. Depending on the mood can often trigger an inspection. Personally the way I run and keep equipment doesn't matter.

    Catch one who is having a bad home-life and looking to pass it on, it can be a rough day and cost very much more than just being a little over weight.
