Hello Andy: Thanks for the advice and warm welcome! I think you're right. I guess in time, my husband will start thinking that this is a serious matter; not to be viewed as a "fad" or "just a phase." Take care. <br>Dora

Dora,<br><br>Take it slow & easy. Try rational arguments if he is amenable to them. Don't forget to include some emotionally appealing hooks too. Changing opinions & attitudes is not an easy or quick accomplishment. Make it as attractive & easy as possible. Remember, you're asking him to change a lot. But such a change is worth a lot of work, isn't it!<br><br>I admit it; I got lucky. I became interested in a San Francisco PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER.. By the time we got married (2 1/2 years later), she was already... well, compatible with me! (And that's saying a lot!) Now, God help anyone who interferes with our 2nd Amendment rights, BSA, or a thousand other matters not popular in her home town.<br><br>Good luck.<br><br>John

Here's my 10 cents worth for all it counts.<br>Your PSK is as it says your personal kit, designed to fit in your pocket in order to give you a slight edge in the event of things going wrong.<br>The old scouts motto still holds good "Be prepared" as a survivor there are two kinds of survival kits which you should always have close at hand. Your PSK and what I call a survival pouch which is one of my ammo pouches which holds brew kit, stove, high energy food, solar still, signalling devices and extras which I think I may need. This will enable my first 24 hrs to be reasonably comfortable.<br>Your knife/multitool or whatever you normally use should always be on your person, belt,pocket etc at all times except for security reasons.<br>The key to survival is knowlege, you need to know what to use, how to use it and where to use it. It is of no use to have even a massive survival kit without the knowlege to know how to use it.<br>Regards,<br> Diesel<br>

You covered it nicely, I think.
