This is but one of many important and useful "satellite" skills and fields of knowledge, -revolving about our usual centerpieces. I'm speaking of Survival Gardening, Basic Soils Science, Climbing, Fishing, Firearms, Household and Workplace Safety, Edible and Poisonous Plants -and Many, many, many, others....!
The Thought's just occurred to me. -How bout if we get another thread going, -where everyone pitches in with such great "Satellite Fields" of their own! I'm sure the bunch of us can over time think of plenty more comprehensive listing than I can readily think of on my own. (Maybe something can even be learned from Dave Blaine and his antics! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />). Either I'll soon start this thread in the Campfire, -or I'll leave it to the first one of you. Either way don't matter to me!
Key Point and Gist here,- These satellite fields often considerably approach in importance, -those of our typical, usual, centerpieces. Some are more, some are less, -important and useful than others. (Some are Keyholes and some are Vanguards. Or Oscars! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Satellites, -Get it?). I know that some of these surrounding Fields of Knowledge are often neccessarily something of side matters to us, (that is when they even come up on our radar screen at all!), -but endeavour somewhat to get "Bitten by the Bug" on some of them! The way a weather dude may center on weather, -or a gardener on the wide world of plants, horticulture, or gardening! Such is the Relevance, Place, and Importance of it all!
