If you get the time, money and opportunity, you will NEVER regret it. Tom Brown is an amazing person. Incredibly intense and inspiring.
In fact, almost every day I have time where I feel very guilty sitting here at a computer chair when I should be working on my survival skills. :)
I met the neatest people, too, from all walks of life--liberal Democrats with Gaia stickers on their bumpers, and plenty of military. The former student and volunteer who helped me (finally) make fire without matches or anything was a Marine from Camp Pendleton.
