I agree it is an excellent book

The problem is that people may try the things he does and injure or kill themselves needlessly. Sure he may have great survival training, but I have not seen much of it on his shows. How about drinking water from elephant dung, and most of the bugs he eats are raw, how many people will die from...

I don't know, anyone that believes that Bear is a survival expert better rethink that position. Most of his stuff on the TV would be better called BS. No one should ever take any un-necessary risks during a real survival situation. His running, jumping, climbing etc. should never be done...

I don't consider it much of a challenge, as long as you do not become injured. If you set your trap lines good, that means two or three each with 30 to 50 traps, you will be able in most parts of the world to build up as supply of food to last several months. (drying the meat) Once you have the...

I would hope not, rayon is a plastic and would melt, not burn very well.

A patch 10 feet by 10 feet will grow around a half bushel of most grains. So unless you are very limited in space you can grow grain. You can grow winter wheat and then follow by soybeans or probably other beans the same year and only lose about half the yield on the second crop.

The problem with all the books on poisonous and non-poisonous plants that I have seen do not identify any plants that are non-poisonous that have no plants that may look similar, and are poisonous. As for your book on poisonous plants, I will be willing to bet that it doesn't include nearly all...

I agree totally, even if you are well trained and well armed, if attacked by more than ten or so, even if they are not well armed, but do have guns, the chances are that you will lose and that means that you and your family are now dead or worst. I always say it is best to run away when you can...

I agree, both are excellent books and should be read by everyone. The one by Bruce Clayton, makes a very good point of not trusting what the government tells you. As he points out the civil defense books published by the government would have gotten you killed if you followed them. Again if you...

I grew up in eastern Kansas, lots of rolling hills, great country, I wish I was still there, but like many I moved where the work was, so I now live in Texas, but if the s*** hits the fan and I can get back there, that is where I would make my stand.

Buy the way Darven, the states is mostly scrub desert, picturesque, but bloody hard to survive in. Add to the fact you would be competing for the limited productive wild space against 300 million people all armed with guns, I'd stay in blighty.:AR15firin I don't know what part of the US you...

My sister just came back to the states from an organized trip to Spain. Their frist class hotels turned out to be third class or worst, their three free meals turned out to be one, and they were required to add the tips to the tune of 15 dollars per free meal. She ended up eating elsewhere for...

GE Money Bank

I had a bank card reduce my credit line from 3000 to 100 saying it was because of report from credit agency EQUAFAX, checked my credit with them, ( I thought at first that my ID might have been stolen )says everything perfect no negatives at all. Contacted the bank issuing card says that the...

Hi I am in Dalas TX, anyone else around here
