Salamanders gave humans fire.
Prometheus just grabbed the glory.

Excellent educational material. Good info for survivalists if things get really crazy.
I like Sterno for hiking and short-term camping. However, long-term survival means making do with what’s available (and what you had in your bug-out kit, LOL).
Thanks for calling attention to forgotten skills. I wonder if anyone’s done a thread on various ways of finding water sources (in the wild, so to speak) and to purify water from suspect sources.
I seem to recall a survivalist thread, but I can’t find it, now - always good info to know.

I don’t believe this, human were smart even at the beginning of creation (maybe even more intelligent than us).

"Very good. Is that you?" Thank you. No it isn't me, I just like to read his blog every day because he's one who likes to think outside the box and has a great sense of humor, to boot.

Yes, it exposes the fact that I reject arbitrary and capricious babbling nonsense.

Obviously our ancestors were making this harder than it really was. All they had to do was discover the missionary position with Rae Dong Chong and she would show ‘em how to make fire.
