Quote from OzJacko: “We have a police force for protection ” Yeah, we don't have that problem. Our illustrious courts have ruled time and again that the police have no duty to protect any of us up here (and often won't in some of the bigger cities I've lived in.) The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that the police did not have a constitutional duty to protect a person from harm nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politic…y-to-protect-someone.html held that the police were under no specific legal duty to provid…

Quote from OzJacko: “Stempa has a hostel. ” Huh, maybe it is the same guy. Wish I knew for sure, cause if I'm blessed enough to get that far, I think I'd like to avoid him if he's the same one.

Quote from OzJacko: “And a box of 50 22WMR ammo is $31.95 at my nearest gun store 45 miles away. 10% discount for 500. ” Wow... Just, wow! =O

Quote from OzJacko: “About 4 or 5 of those weapons I can legally buy here. I am actually planning on buying a rifle shortly. Last had one about 15 years ago. To buy a 22 magnum rimfire I have to get a letter from a landowner with more than 1000 acres to say that I can hunt on their property, do a safety test, buy a steel cabinet (about $300) and bolt it to a solid wall in the house, fill in an application specifying why I want it and pay around $300 in fees. Then after at least 6 weeks of proces…

Those views are freaking gorgeous! The more that people post pics like these, the more I hate living in Ohio.

Quote from OzJacko: “Don't think so. This guy is a day or two north of Lehigh Gap. Goes by the name Mechanical Man. Correct spelling is John Stempa. I am not a fan of him. ” Ah, okay. The guy I had heard/read about ran a hostel or something, but I can't remember where. Probably went out of business long ago with practices like that.

Quote from hikerboy: “scott jurek ” F*** Yeah! That's what I was gonna say. Guess I'll have to settle for bashing FEMA some more...

Quote from OzJacko: “John Stempur takes any coolers left near his hostel as "it's littering". He has an odd mixture of drinks for sale (warm) in his garage and a large stack of coolers. ” Not 100% sure, but this sounds like the guy I heard about that "claims" leftover alcohol fuel from hiker boxes and then sells it by the ounce to other hikers as they come through. Same guy...?

Quote from WiseOldOwl: “Yea there are now lighter versions... I am guessing you found the light bulb and I have the LED version - its OK I got slapped over on a survival forum about the Farson. Too many old timers. Do you own a ATAX? ” Nah, don't own one. Thought about it ever since he started showing off prototypes for the thing a few years back at Dirt Time. But 'tween my Mora and my hatchet (and sometimes my folding saw) there just isn't much I can't do in the woods that I would do with the A…

Quote from rhjanes: “When I first messed with it like a year ago, I always lost. Played it again a few weeks ago and complete the trail.....twice.....go figure. ” Just needed to get your (cyber) trail legs in order to finish? My question is, if I reach one of the decision screens on there and get up to hit the little boys room or go make a sandwich or whatever - does that make me a section hiker on there?

Quote from Rasty: “They didn't have insurance or FEMA. ” Well, it doesn't seem like either one did much good for 2005 residents.
