I'm sorry, guys, but I just cannot wrap my head
around that stiff blue wallboard being an
effective shock absorber.  I'd like to see some
valid studies on that.  Pack a radio in a box with
that stiff blue board, put an accelerometer on one
side and smack the other with a weight.  See how
much shock energy is transmitted through the box
and therefore, through the radio.  Do the same
with the same radio in a box more conventionally
packed and I think one would see a lot of that
shock energy absorbed in compressing the much more
"compressible" material like AirPack.
 If it works for you, God bless you.  I just can't
bring myself to trust it.
