I live in the burbs and work in a major city and I couldn't agree with you more. Very well said. My EDC and PSK are basically one and the same as I carry a full PSK-type supply of gear day in and day out. Someday soon I would like to post the contents of my EDC/PSK gear and get suggestions on it from people like you who have obviously given much careful thought to the subject. BTW as a person that carries a good supply of gear on my person on a daily basis also agree with you that gear is certainly not a replacement for good primitive and improvisational skills.
