		<description>Thanks Moon Dog.  One thing I&#039;d mention - my column started here on my website.  Then it moved to the Forum.  Now, it&#039;s back home.  I haven&#039;t gotten it rolling on a regular basis yet... but that&#039;s coming, sooner rather than later.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t believe I never caught on to this. It&#039;s all a big fat conspiracy to pad the pockets of the luggage companies (and the chiropractors who benefit as a result of the back problems that ensue from lugging this heavy baggage around every day!) It never occurred to me that this was the scheme, as each fall, I spent bundles of money on the Rolls Royce of back packs for my kids. They&#039;d been trained to deflect any attempts of their mother&#039;s to purchase something economical, something reasonably sized and priced. No. Nothing less than steel lined, multi-pocketed, multi-zippered would do.(And don&#039;t forget the iPod/ear-bud feature.) 

Of course, this news comes a little too late for me, as the last child is soon to enter her final year of high school. It seems the back-pack conspiracy fades away as the kids enter the college years, so there IS hope.
