I think I've got pretty much everything covered. If I add some clothes and food I could go camping no problem. smile

Oh, and Mr. Ratcliffe, as far as tinder goes if I get a little mint tin I'll add some p-jelly/cotton. However, I've generally got about $200 worth of books and notebooks in the bag at any one time that I could burn if need be. grin


BOOKS are KNOWLEGE! They are the last thing you sacrifice.
Looks around for a gun to shoot him with. Haven't got one. Borrow your club mate? (joke).

Seriously: ITSHTF or TEOTWAWKI happens preserving books, particularly text books becomes an absolute priority. I once saw a calculation that demonstrated that it only takes 3 generations for vital knowledge to be lost and somewhere between 5 and 10 to reduce a civilisation to a state that is effectively barbarianism.
