I'm just now putting together first aid kits for home, office, cars and EDC, so this is a timely thread for me.

In a thread that uses the term "Show-off" and on a forum that likes its share of gear talk and gear photos, I expect the appearance of a, er, "Mall Medic" or two. That's cool. I appreciate the enthusiasm and also the efforts to post details and photos.

Even more I value the critiques and rigor of the forum. If someone catches a whiff of BS, it's usually good to call it out. Maybe it keeps someone else from stepping in it, so to speak.

Anyway, was it Wm. Blake who wrote, "Opposition is true friendship"? Put another way, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." (Proverbs 27:17)
