[MM-MALTS-L] Notches, Wists and Pouches.... Oh MY!

That's going to be one butt-ugly belt....  Speaking for myself,  
thanks to a few trips to Scotland, my belt would have around 27  
notches, maybe 8-9 wists and (sadly) no pouches.

My thoughts about adding the requirement of touching the still to get  
a notch...
1) They're hot.
2) Skin oils can discolor copper.
3) Often you're not even allowed close to them, even when you're on  
an individual walkthrough.  (Kind of a superstition, not unlike the  
whole "no flash photography" prohibition...)

An interesting proposition though... It'd be interesting to build a  
web application where you could "build a belt" by ticking off your  
visits, wists and pouches, then add to it as time went on.
