Not true at all. I use single wall tents for most hunting and backpacking trips (mostly a B-D Mega-light without a stove)and have never (not once) gotten "everything inside the tent wet." Come to think of it, the only thing I've ever gotten wet was a hat or jacket sleeve that I've bumped against the interior, and a few drops here and there on other stuff. This year's trip was in a K-tipi with rain every day and nothing inside the tent got wet. I use a down bag, and if the quote above were true I'd probably be dead by now, or at least I'd have been compelled to get a synthetic bag with a waterproof liner.
