This is a very reliable way to get a fire quickly. One of these should be part of every survival kit.
Rustmeister on NIU
To those who don't want to carry firearms I say fine, don't. But be mature enough to understand those who do are as fine a people as you are. They love their families, and love their individual freedom. They won't shoot you if you take their parking spot or grab the last can of wasabi almonds off the store shelf...
Rustmeister gives me the credit of a lot of restraint, and despite my love for wasabi almonds it is truely unlikely that I would shoot someone over them.
Seriously, go read this piece NIU

David Codrea writes about gun rights, the abuses of government and the police, and gun control issues. I read this blog every day, and it usually has some well-reasoned, on-point commentary.

But I have never actually been in the situation where I would have to fight tooth and claw for my snack-food. I can't really say to what lengths I would go, but I am hoping I could keep my baser instincts in check and find a substitute snack.
