Well I'm glad y'all got past the "Humble stage", I'm still humbled by the amount of experience here. Real "Boots in the field" I mean.

Y'know, kind of in defense of Sarge's OP, he asked the younger members to explain why they thought older people should give heed to their wilderness survival advice and I don't think it's wrong to ask anyone of any age to maybe show their credentials here. We kind of do in the intro section anyway. Personally, there's been some advice given on the forum that I knew better than to listen to when I was a lot younger than 18 or 15 or whatever, because that's my background, but similarly, there's some youngsters that log in here that are living a pretty good outdoors life.

Of course those of us a little longer in the tooth are going to be a bit suspect about advice coming from kids, so, explain your credentials a bit, why not? If you have the knowledge it shouldn't hurt your feelings any.

Note to double s, I never thought Sarge was singling you out, we've had a lot of people who've shown themselves to be potential numpties over the years here and I think he's more concerned with that.
