Hello you!
I have a stack of bushcraft/wilderness/primitive/survival goodies that i no longer need so decided to give it away to the first person who can answer my question. This is a free freebie that's absolutely free with no strings (or cordage) attached.

Who's family motto was 'have faith in the silent forest' and what is he famous for?

(that two questions - I bet you feel cheated).

First to post correct answer wins, hurray.

(don't expect an immediate response as i don't have regular internet access)

Viktor Schauberger - Austrain bloke that was from a family of foresters (may be royal descendants?), inventor and philosopher.

Did some work on floatation and hydrodymanics - making heavier than water things float. Think log flumes. Also a load of post war stuff on power generation from water.


Damn some thing gleamed form Hawkwind stuff comes in useful!
