Yes, after spending $50k on a fancy 4WD vehicle, having to fork out  
another 1% on something which could save the lives of you and your  
family is outrageous. It's much, MUCH better to die a painful,  
lingering death from cold and starvation in the bush while the rest of  
us piss away thousands of dollars mounting a fruitless search.

Ahem. :)
