09/16/23 02:25 PM Warning - AI Generated Wild Foraging Books by dougwalkabout

I saw a report of AI generated wild foraging books for sale on Amazon. This is potentially dangerous stuff, because it's unreliable to say the least and potentially life threatening.

08/25/23 06:00 PM Maui Wildfires: Barricade Blocked Only Road Out by brandtb

As flames tore through a West Maui neighborhood, car after car of fleeing residents headed for the only paved road out of town in a desperate race for safety.

And car after car was turned back toward the rapidly spreading wildfire by a barricade blocking access to Highway 30.

One family swerved around the barricade and was safe in a nearby town 48 minutes later, another drove their 4-wheel-drive car down a dirt road to escape. One man took a dirt road uphill, climbing above the fire and watching as Lahaina burned. He later picked his way through the flames, smoke and rubble to pull survivors to safety.

But dozens of others found themselves caught in a hellscape, their cars jammed together on a narrow road, surrounded by flames on three sides and the rocky ocean waves on the fourth. Some died in their cars, while others tried to run for safety.

So what is the lesson here?

08/19/23 06:47 PM Survival/hiking vest by frediver

I need some help. I am trying to find the manufacturer of a hiking/survival vest. These were made I believe in the last 10yr.
They were designed like a military SV-1 or SV-2 vest. IE- One large zippered pocket under each arm.Does anyone remember who made these vests? No it was not Rothco.
Thanks.
