Martin's never been PC.
An old Army buddy of mine is in the police down there
CLAP clearly loudly, as an order, with pauses
5” Cold Steel folding knife
2” Cheep O’ pin knife on the key chain
Kubaton on key chain
Nail clippers on key chain
Zippo
iphone (No survival manual… but Angry Birds)
Handkerchief (gentleman’s pocket stile, not biker head bandanna style)
Some days a Leatherman, some days not.
Enough blubber for 3 weeks.
Looks like I need to only find water… or a pub
One note on the GPS is the iPhone 3G… Not a real GPS. It still needs cell towers to work. Found this out while 4x4 off roading a year back. Regardless of any other hype… when you’re out far enough to lose all cell coverage, the Iphones GPS also dies. Don’t count on it to work!

Theres certain things I never leave home without. My Maxpedition mini pocket organizer with pens, diamond sharpener, lighter, ferro rod, SOG Access Card 2.0, cell phone. Then loose in my pockets are 4Sevens Mini Quark AA2, extra batteries, ESEE Izula in my wallet, GEC Pioneer, Buck Ultra Light, and lighter.
I guess it would all depend on were you were surviving. Japan and Katrina were weeks and weeks without aid. If it was local Id just walk to the closest farm or highway. Call for help. Great to think about though. So many folks, my wife included, leave home with nothing but a dead cell phone in their pockets. Thats just asking for trouble.
