   I maintain that the real nature is not quite what you   
   think without all our technology. You have a romanticized   
   idea of what that is like. Go into the wilderness with   
   maybe what food you can carry and a little bit of kindling   
   and see to your own shelter and resupply. Get the real   
   experience.   
      
   I used to hike deep into the woods and build a fire   
   and have a weenie roast and spend many hours there,   
   but I made sure it was winter when all the vermin   
   were safely tucked in their beds and I didn't stay   
   long. I also was a very healthy 17 year old.
