www.MajorSurplusNSurvival has added an excellent links page; public health issues ( anthrax), weather and even this outfit called "equipped to survive". I should also announce I am proceeding ( one step forward, two steps back so far) to assemble and market a pocket kit. I have a empty tack room in the barn with a resident owl to keep mice out. My horse just fell over from nail polish fumes on safety matches. I look forward to your peer reviews.

What's going to be in the kit, if you know at this point.<br><br>BTW, if the horse is getting groggy, your owl will need a designated flier.

Cool! I am so there. When you have a glimmer about the price range of this, let us know. I'll start saving my pennies.

Im getting a education in marketing if nothing else! Wei, Gypum & Howe tin box company of Singapore wants a minimum order of 64,000 units @ .40 ea. I have to make the contents user friendly ( idiot proof). I hope to offer the pocket SAS GEM in addition to basic instructions ( and a plea to visit our site). So far I plan on the Sparklite and tinder, strike anywhere matches( laquered). Lifeboats are to expensive and problematical for the uninitiated. A small liquid compass, Quality small folder,Water purification tabs and condoms( can't wait till the pharmacist sees me buying 500 condoms! ),snare wire, fishing kit,whistle,sewing kit,Photon ll , cephalon bandages and topicals. This is by no means final or complete. I have no idea as to price yet. I want to market the Rolls Royce of kits at a Volvo's sticker price.
