I cannot stand backpacks for commuting, let alone a 15 mile stretch, but this just goes to show that everyone has their own particular take on the best solution. Thread topics like this are pretty much like asking "what's your favorite food?" At the same time, these kinds of threads are a great exchange of ideas and provide insights into the issues we all face. Good stuff.
