Kind of an interesting forum. Stop by and chip in with some advice. http://thesurvivalpodcast.com/forum/ind ... board=72.0 (http://thesurvivalpodcast.com/forum/index.php?board=72.0)

It beats the pants off that other ham radio cesspool...you know the one, stars with a Q, ends with a ban and sucks harder that a $2 date on a Saturday night.

Hello.

Survival is, of course, important to most of us, if not all of us.
But the term 'Survivalist' has some negative connotations.
Things like guns take to the forefront in peoples minds.
An example I was very much involved in was in 2003 in San Antonio.
I was in Alamo Plaza doing my thing with a black powder pistol.
Some NYC cop got all excited and pointed his sidearm at me, at what point we had the classic "Mexican Standoff".
Once it was all said and done this guy called me a "Survivalist Nutcase" and said that "In New York we don't have nuts with guns running around".
My reply was that he was in Texas and that by Texas standards I am normal. :mrgreen:

ARFCom has a good one in their "Outdoors" scetion, but it's occasionally peppered with the requisite know-it-alls.

If I heard that I would have been laughing so hard I couldn't catch my breath long enough to reply!

Pot, Kettle...Ann-o-rexic doesn't seem to have much of a relationship with food-preparation facilities. :whistle
