That looks interesting! I have survived weeks off the land, with nothing, no 
tools -- only the clothes on my back. I'd head into the woods, hiking around, 
up & down mountains, just enjoying the natural phytochemical antidepressants 
the trees emit! Went in with no food, no guides, no compass -- just bopped 
around until bored, then popped out exactly where I wanted to, relativero my 
entry point (no trailblazing or marking my paths, either; just stubbornness & 
dead reckoning); Fun -- I miss this.

Me, too -- I'm completely sold on it -- get all my books via there now! All
the ones my library couldn't locate within the free interlibrary network in
BBC,  I've found! Getting back into a couple series & knowing I wont be
missing  anything now.

Negative As all get out -- boring & annoying, & when they're not being 
negative, & even when they are, so much blatant lying to us!

I discovered the two-step way to living forever: 1. Don't die.
2. Stubbornness.
