Attempting to hike out when you haven't the slightest idea where you are or where your going in a blizzard was his last mistake.
Hmmmm.
Let me think this through.
Eureka!!! I have got it.
All he has to do is think about it a few minutes, figure out where he is and where he is going and.....................
He is not lost!!! He figured out where he is and where he is going so he is not lost.
A guy had a real funny posted the other day. He compared the Iraq report to a comic he read as a kid.
Captain Obvious.
"Captain Obvious, I have a problem. I have locked my keys in my car and can not get to them. What should I do?'
Captain Obvious; "Well all you have to do is unlock your doors and then you can get to your keys."
"Oh thank you, Captain Obvious for your help."
"Think nothing of it. All in a day's work for Captain Obvious".
I am sure that Captain Obvious would have told Kim to sit down and figure out where he was and where he was going and his problem would be solved. He would no longer be lost.
Or perhaps if you could have talked to him on his cell, you could have explained this to him.
