Fire starting with matchs and/or lighter, basic first aid, and having a clue about your anticipated enviroment. If it isn't urban, then how to camp (even car camping, BUT NOT WITH AN RV).
If someone has no clue about this stuff, my reaction would be the same if they were to suddenly pop up on an AT or PT forum- why are you here? I can forgive someone who averages about four matches to get a fire lit- that's learning how to use the gear, you have the basic concept. People who hold a bic under a soggy hemlock branch on the other hand.....
