I hate Spam. Both kinds, the sh!t in the can and the type generated by that site.

RE: Survival IQ Quiz
alright, this test says "dont go in the woods alone". but it also says that if you are attacked by a black bear to fight as hard as you can and try to escape. hmmm...i reckon i'll be okay w/ that sorta advice.

RE: Survival IQ Quiz
I didn't think it was spam. You saw the title and chose to read it. It wasn't misleading by any stroke of the imagination. If you didn't want to take the dang quiz, it's your loss, loser.

"All fields required"

"email address_______________"
"etc"

What else could it be? Current email addresses = cash.

Of course I am a radical that thinks, "Steal this Book", was a literary masterpiece. I still wrap bricks in brown paper Kroger sacks and tape "postage paid" envelopes to the outside of them. I figure if some assh0le can afford to send me junk mail he can afford to pay for a cinder block airmailed back.

Oh my! I scored a whopping 11 points! How do I manage? Perhaps I should stick to group hikes. NOT!

Personally, I have a side account I use for crap like that. It gets all the spam, and my real email is for friends and family only.

I don't expect to win and I really wuldn't want a GPS anyway. I need to perfect the compass skills first. I'd have to give it away and then I'd have to pick someone to give it to, it would be a trying experience! I wanted to make sure your chances would be better too.

RE: Survival IQ Quiz
Okay, I don't do "sweepstakes" of any kind, and "Who wants to be a millionaire" is one of the three worst shows on TV (along with Survivor and Big Brother), but I'm confused, joy... How do they find you to let you know that you won the big bucks if you don't give them your real e-mail address?

Don't you wish there were a knob on the TV to turn up the intelligence? There's one marked 'Brightness,' but it just doesn't seem to work.

Rick, I don't do sweepstakes either, just wanted to take the quiz. I guess they'll have to give my prize to the runner up. I don't put my name on there either.

RE: Survival IQ Quiz
With a mere 11 points, it is painfully obvious that I don't get out there enough which indicates that I'm a newbie which means, I need more gear! I should win because I'm gonna die without it.

Poor misguided AmyG! bacpac is most assuredly a bastard. By his own admission I?d guess! At least up ?til now he?s been consistent. Now all is lost!

RE: Survival IQ Quiz
The answer to the question about safe water to drink.They said it was clear mountain streams .that is untrue,you cannot drink clear mountain stream water safely anymore either due to Giardia it must be filtered,boiled or treated too. I emailed them and I got a reply today from them that they agreed the answer is wrong on the test and that they were going to change it .
