Well put. Being prepared is not just about collecting toys, excuse me, I meant tools.

I'll also note the chances of you (the proverbial you that is, not throwing stones) hurting me or some other bystander by mishandling your flint and striker or compass is a quite bit lower than the chance of hurting someone while mishandling a firearm.
