Re: Survival/first aid kits

Hi John,

I posted a similar question about first aid kits a few weeks ago and there 
is a whole thread on that:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BackpackingLight/message/59555

the thread responses will be at the bottom.

With respect to survival suggestions - I guess we would need to know where 
you will be (environment makes a difference).  The key would be shelter, 
warmth, food, and water.  Most of the essentials you'll have on your back.
