Hasn't the last five or thirty times this has been addressed been enough?

I mean, every time Bear is brought up, Mears is brought up as better, then Bear is brought up as having a six pack rather than a keg, it goes on for a long time, people argue (myself included), the subject invariably leaks into other threads and there's an unpleasant atmosphere for a while. Just not worth it IMO.

Must type faster....

You beat me to it ;)


If you want to know what people think, read past threads. If you really think it's a subject that needs further discussion, you would probably get much better mileage from a site that allows people to vent their feelings with more freedom than we do here :lurk: :lmao:

I totally agree with Draven. Ray is obviously better.

As far as I have seen on each of Bears prog in the casting credits in each different environment it will list a different local 'Technical Survival Instructor'

Giving that condition , I wouldn'nt mind making a prog or two. A sort of halfway house between A keg and A Six-Pack...??

What would that be.... ( insert funny comments here.)

aw i missed out on the thread:(

Ok (let's stir it up a bit:naughty: )

Bear Seems to be a bit MENTAL!!!!! (which is cool):headbang: .

Ray can seem a bit "Tree hugger" (which is not so cool).

on the Positives:

Bear has guts the "mans man"and shows you stuff which seems to be life and death situations and how to get out of them(including eating gruesome stuff)

Ray Is the teacher and shows ancient stuff and brings it to life.

Negatives:

Bear Seem to be a bit MENTAL!!!!! (which is cool):headbang: .

Ray can come across a bit "my way or none".


I think I'd get on better with Bear he seems more aproachable, Ray seems more like you'd need a reason to speak to him(or be an ancient culture).

(p.s. i may not agree with the above!)
:naughty:

British Red, you look tired you should sleep, it's impolite to yawn:rolleyes:

what is the missing P?

it's a human waste product from the kidneys and it rhymes with "Miss"

It's a common Phrase used in the military meaning "Be prepared".

Urine is Usually not on the list of items usefull to the bushcrafter but Bear seems to be full of it.

Well at least he doesn't take it.



although:eek: ...... i think one desert programe he did.:yuck:
