He's back - regular OMers may have been concerned over the curious hibernation of OM's question and answer kit oracle, Richard Gear, well, the good news is that Richard has returned from an arduous sabbatical in the Andes and is now available to answer your geary queries once again.

No, that's the wrong Richard...

Richard lives in a small box on the lower righthand edge of the OM homepage and has now answered 409 questions about gear. He can go on a bit and some of his answers are frankly a little weird, but he tries to help.

In the last couple of weeks, Richard has answered questions about fleece, gas stoves, ventilated packs, baselayer choice and boot resoling. His previous answers are searchable as well, even the one about carrying petrol in a a rucksac that goes back to the fuel crisis a few years ago.

So, if you want to tap into Richard's curious mind, visit him in his box...
