Surviving mass media influence
This is what I do whenever I find myself getting too wrapped up in current events.

I don't recall if I posted here or not, but back in the summer I made one of those coffee can hobo stoves, used it, filled it with tinder and kindling and stored it away out in the bush for future use.
I decided to go back after the big rain and thaw we had at the beginning of the year and see if the tinder and stuff was still dry and usable. It was dry enough and getting fire was a cinch even after the heavy downpours we had the day before, not to mention the 6" of snow that had been covering everything for the past month.
I'm going to be placing these out in the areas I frequent, so I don't have to go around trying to find dry tinder and such. Since I usually have plenty of tinder and kindling left over after making fire I just stuff the unused stuff back into the stove, put the lid on and hide it away. It makes things real easy and saves a lot of time getting a fire going for cooking and such.
