On a related note, I LOVE waterproof breathable jackets and pants! I feel invincible in them. I don't care how silly I look in them. I LOVE technical clothing. GORE-TEX is way cool! I would just love to be the only person able to walk through a major downpour with strong winds while everyone else is huddled inside with their flimsy umbrellas. Actually that did happen several times and I was the only person brave enough (and protected enough) to walk through the downpour. I even wore my plastic shoes that day and even though it rained so hard that the street was flooded, my shoes and feet were OK in the 4 inches of water. It felt awesome!
