Re: Skills to help survival
A very good idea. Since there are other places in this blog that cover survival SUPPLIES, I won't cover that again. But, I would recommend getting some survival books in one's library.
1) The S.A.S. Survival Manual. It's the military's book, it covers many climates and survival situations.
2) 98.6 Degrees, The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive by Cody Lundin. It is also a great book and quite humerous too.
I confess, my survival skills currently consist of memorizing the locations of all the local restaurants, so I'm no expert. But the least one can do is have these (and no doubt other) survival books on hand for tips and strategies on how to use your house, car and possessions to best advantage for survival. Also, get books on wild edible plants, particularly in your area.
I AM a big believer in getting the basic supplies, though, and these I do have. Just imagine being in your house for an extended time with no utilities or services and plan on how to cover all the categories: food, water, medicine, tools, waste disposal, heat, fuel, etc., etc. There are no shortages of websites that will help you out.
