I LINKED TO THE U.S. ARMY SURVIVAL MANUAL the other day. It's pretty cheap in printed form, but reader Richard Kemmer notes: "You might want to pass on to your readers the fact that they can obtain a copy of this manual for free, in PDF format here. Given that so many people travel with computer-like phones, many can keep this in their phones, if they wish."

That's kind of cool. Though in PDF it's a pretty big document to store on most cell phones. Maybe converted to HTML or text, though.

Good link. Slow server.

I also recommend any edition you can find of "Fieldbook for Boys and Men" published by BSA.

Don't forget the fishing stuff, I have 3 collapsible poles all set with 5-19 lb test line. Bluegills are bony but quite tasty.

And I saved just about all the seeds from my garden last year, alot of lettuce, cabbage, carrot, onion seeds.

In the northwest theres about 3 species of wild lettuce, bitter if it's old, but best while young.

And dandelion is perfectly edible. In fact it's quite good for you.
