I agree but even the unexpected can come upon those that are prepared for almost anything. Not that I believe it but Achilles had one weakness that lead to his downfall.

True. And they would be dead.

Drop me (not too hard) in most of North America, and I can get by for 3 days. In a month I'll be living fairly comfortably.

No flush toilets, or stuff like that, but the basics, shelter, heat, water, food, clothing.

I like having stuff. I don't require stuff to survive. I have a mindset and the skillsets to survive. Wilderness is harder than urban, considering the concentration of resources.

I don't even require a knife. I can make one.

Can you identify the rocks that will make a suitable cutting edge?

Yes, but Achilles’ weakness was not being unable to get from here to there or provide for his basis sustenance.

When I think of the storm victims I’m seeing in such desperation, without water, batteries, gas, etc, Achilles does not come to mind.
