Well done.

BTW links are embedded in the following manner:

>a href="www.whereyourlinkis.com"< >Link name<

Just reverse the "<" thingies and you're all set. Yes you need the quotation marks and yes you need the link name after the actual embedded link.

I hope you find this useful.

I’ll work on that this afternoon. If you only knew what an utter klutz I am with all things related to code (not sure what that even is), you’d be amazed that I manage to log on to FR! LOL

IMHO, this article is good only as a food for thought to make you make your own survival kit(s)

I believe that we have an avesome knowledge pool here on FR
and instead of amateur play should gather advice from the people who know what works and what does not.

I see essentially for scenarios, winter/all seasons and urban/country.Let’s call kits FRUW (FreeperUrbanWinter), FRUA (urban all season) FRCW, FRCA.

Idea is that winter kit is made by winterizing all-season kit.

What I would add to the kit:

1. inconspicuos looking light duffle bag with large ziploc bags for organizing contents and waterproofing packaged in such a fashion to be used as a cushion.

2. Zippo ligher, fuel and hand warmer

3. crank LED flashlight

5. “space blanket”

6. universal tool (leatherman or similar)

7. 3 cans of tuna or sardines in oil (one can = one day energy supply) and crackers.

8. 6 x 2oz chocolate bars for energy and depresion self-medication

9. bandages and liquid bandage

10. Cash in the pockets, and extra cash and credit card hidden in a duffle bag and in the clothes.

11. toilet kit that can be used if there is no water
