I like your question!! It makes one stop and think...what am I doing on here?? BTW, Welcome!
Ok, I think of myself in terms of being a person that loves the outdoors, particularly wild areas, without roads and often without trails. Often when one ventures to such places skills and equipment can be important tools. I like to share and learn about outdoorsman skills, basic emergency survival and first aid and about gadgets in terms of usefulness, reliability and necessity.
I like to help others by sharing my experiences with situations and equipment also. I am a gadget person, but not to the extremes of some folks. Also, because I own a bunch of gadgets, does not mean I carry them constantly, I like to have what I need, when I need it, if that makes any sense! I tend to use my head more than my pack straps, I guess! I prefer to know useful skills rather than carry a gadget to do it for me. Gadgets fail, batteries die, widget tools break or get lost. I like to carry minimums, yet be able to live comfortably in outdoor situations. Hope that explains me:)
