Does the  person who goes out kayaking with nothing
more than a paddle and a pair of  shorts and a cotton
t-shirt have a techno-phoboa or are they just  plain
foolish?

It depends where you paddle. The aforementioned attire is entirely  
appropriate in Florida or Brazil and most places in between. I know whitewater  
paddlers who wear a pair of shorts and a drytop certain times of the year. Some  of 
them are pretty good, too. Me, I dress for the conditions and my ability to  
handle them.

Oh, you get what you pay for. I know, it's another dogma, but cheaper  
knockoffs have been trying to unseat Goretex for  years.
