According to the original article in nwaonline.net, he made several mistakes. 1. No compass or emergency gear 2. hunting alone even though his friends were not very far off. 3. panicking and taking off in unknown direction. Apparently he wandered for 3-4 hours. The only smart things he did was the underwear and finally finding a dry spot to stop on.

Do you have a URL for that article?

I hope this worksnwaonline

Thanks

A friend was reading the last article over my shoulder. She said a white D-cup bra probably would have attracted attention quicker. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Interesting

I think I'll keep my underwear where it belongs <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Besides, after a disaster I can't garuntee that it will still be the right color for signalling <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I carry around an international orange hankerchief for that reason though.

Matt,

I can't believe you actually took the time to lay out your skivvies so nicely. My favorites are the penguins and the hula lady. Do you ever make her dance?
