Whippoorwill User ID: 650482 Canada 05/09/2009 03:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Make sure you have a safe place to get into and an easy way to get out safely. METAL CONTAINER: those Maxwell House gourmet coffee tins, the little ones, are perfect. The container should be metal so it can be used to heat water over a campfire. SMALL LENGTH OF DUCT TAPE: I use this to hold the top of my kit on firmly, plus it's a great waterproofer. Duct tape also works great when you don't have a triangular bandage: it holds on dressings, works well for fastening a splint, etc. EMERGENCY (SPACE) BLANKET: these are those little aluminium- looking blankets you can buy at any camping store. They are good for making into an emergency shelter, keeps you warm, and is reflective (i.e. can be spotted from aircraft). CANDLE STUB: makes a great fire starter, and can keep you warm in an enclosed space if you can't light a fire. BAND-AIDS: always have one or two (or three or four...) CHOCOLATE SQUARE, HERBAL TEA BAG, OXO CUBE: you can use any or all of the above. Each will give you much-needed energy and in the case of tea or stock cube, something warm to drink. Please note!! Regular tea has caffeine which will act as a dehydrator, herbal teas don't. WATERPROOFED MATCHES: for starting fires, of course! LARGE SAFETY PIN OR FISH HOOK: for fishing, if you're hungry. SMALL SAFETY PINS: good for holding slings together, etc. PIECE OF CRAYON: will act as a fire starter; you can also mark trees if you're on the move in the woods to let searchers know you've been there. Of course, in most cases, if you're lost in the woods it's better to stay where you are, i.e. hug a tree! BAKING SODA: a little of this mixed with water will help rehydrate a dehydrated person; mixed into a thick paste it helps on mosquito bites and bee stings. RUBBER GLOVES: anytime you're administering first aid to someone, you should wear gloves!! ANTISEPTIC WIPES: to clean out cuts etc. FIRST AID GAUZE: for any larger cuts. TINFOIL: can be used in lieu of a mirror to signal planes or boats, and takes up less space. Can also be modified into a water carrier if needed. SMALL JACKKNIFE: a blade always comes in handy! FISHING LINE OR DENTAL FLOSS: to use with fish hook for fishing, or to make into snares for animals. SALT PACKETS: again, when you're dehydrated, your body needs to regain salt as well as water. Mix with water and drink. HALAZONE TABLETS: these will help purify your drinking water... check their expiry date before leaving on a trip! Most tablets are only good for a year or so once the bottle's been opened. I also have a little piece of paper with all the internationally recognized ground-to-air signal codes on it, which fits in my kit. On its flip side are directions for making a simple lean-to. Of course the most important aspect of any survival kit is making sure your girls know how to use it! A couple of years ago, my old Pathfinder unit made up two games to test their survival skills in summer and winter conditions. Check 'em out! :-) Thanks to Lisa Sykes for this great tip! Instead of chocolate in your survival kit, why not substitute a Milk Bone dog biscuit? They are edible and full of energy. And if you're lost in the woods with the munchies, you're less likely to eat your Milk Bone when you don't really need it yet! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 670039 Germany 05/09/2009 03:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I heard Strange rumbling sounds over Los angeles when i went outside to feed the dog. It sounded like thunder but there were no clouds in the sky. My bro and mom came outside to see what that noise was but it was weird. There were no clouds, the sound went on for about 5 mins.... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 606601You are hearing trains in the distance. These trains are switching as other train traffic comes by. Deep low rumbling sound... almost sub-hearing; you can feel the vibration sometimes. |

rah36 User ID: 700302 United States 06/11/2009 11:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | im in chicago, and lastnight at about 9pm, myself and two others heard what sounded like bombs going off in the distance,then it would sound like the engine of a harley davidson,then it would sound like like a storm,without the "natural", storm sound qualities. the sound finally seemed as if were right above the house,and as we were coming to grips that this was really going on,...nothing...it just freakin stopped. the entire event seemed to take 15min. i went outside to see who would be in denial. a lady passed with, who seemed to be her daughter. i overheard her say "science", and "when they fuck up"... |

Greenhorn User ID: 889422 United States 02/12/2010 02:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Speaking from experience, if you are hearing thunder and there are no or few clouds it is probably the earth moving. A few years ago I would hear thunder and look outside and wonder. Then we got a series of earthquakes which were accompanied by the same sounds. When the earth does quake for you pay attention to the sounds and report back. They are pretty interesting. |
