I've noticed some other forums I visit have begun featuring articles that promote more of an "Equipped to Survive" mindset for mere mortals, rather than a more rigid survivalist mindset for the diehard outdoors adventurer.

And it's not by accident. Some sites will begin articles with something like this: We have been receiving email asking how people should can be prepared while not attracting unwanted attention, or while wearing a business suit, or while working in an office building. Here are a few hints and tips to get you started.

These sites are now beginning to promote the concepts Equipped has held dear from the start.

One such site that I visit once in a while is Outdoors-Magazine.com. They posted a very nicely done article on a survival key fob built around a Swiss Army Knife. Of course I loved that! Here is the link to the write-up on the SAK Fob Kit.
