Just in case anyone is interested:<br><br>I'll be presenting "A Survival Primer" this Sunday, February 24, 2002, at 10:30 AM, at the Northwest Aviation Conference at Western Washington Fairgrounds, Puyallup, Washington, second floor, the Pavilion. http://www.washington-aviation.org/NAC%26TS.html The 1.25 hour presentation will cover basic survival gear and techniques. Those who survive the presentation will be eligible to win some cool survival related door prizes.<br><br>I’ll be presenting “Human Behaviors in Emergencies: An Introduction,” a short 30 minute intorductory talk on how groups and individuals act in an emergency and how best tod eal with them, such as a ship sinking, at the 2002 Passenger Vessel Industry Day which is being held at the Officer’s Club, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, New London, CT. Info at http://www.uscg.mil/d1/units/grumsolis/Prevention/IndustryDay/IndustryDay2002/IndustryDay2002.HTM if anyone is interested.<br><br>Finally, a head’s up for any California LEO types out there, I have agreed to speak to the California Highway Patrol Coastal Air Operations on March 20 in Paso Robles. I'll apparently be giving a series of seminars starting with my 2-part “Ditching and Water Survival” presentation (about 2.5 hours), including a life raft deployment, and possibly going from there. Other local, state and federal air ops and others are apparently going to be invited. Don’t have times and details yet, but if interested, let me know via email.

Doug,<br><br>Will the presentations be broadcast or transcribed so that those of us who cannot attend in person can attend remotely.<br><br>By the way, ETS is a great website. I have really learned a lot from it.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>John<br><br>

Doug,<br><br> Sure wish I could be there. I am sure it will be a profitable time for all involved. eventhough I am close enough to drive up, I will be involved in my own form of long term survival training. (REALLY LONG TERM) <br><br>P.W.

Good luck with your own survival stuff.

Afraid not. On the other hand, there's not a lot there that isn't already on this Web site (except for the Coast Guard one), except for me in person. Thanks for the compliments.

Will you do me a favor??? Tell Bob Joyner (the Chopper Sgt) that Don and Cheryl from Merced (formerly Coalinga and Fresno CHP) say Hi to he and Sandy.<br><br>Thanks, OBG

Catching upon old messages. Have printed out your message and will do.<br>

Thanks. We haven't seen Bob since he transferred over to the coast. Make him buy you lunch or something...or introduce you to Sky King...
