Collection of Survival Info

There's been a lot of great how-to's and survival tips posted by various people, but it's not organized anywhere, so that's the purpose of this post. I'll try to keep it updated and relatively complete. Post anything you think I should add in the comments. Anything without credit listed is from my own research.

(Ok, I posted that before I gathered everything together, and there's a lot less than I thought. I'll be doing some of my own research, but link me up people!)

Hopefully I (or someone other industrious fellow) will go through all these links and pull out the best ones, but for now here's just the raw list:

Comments

no, that's what I mean - just a page that links to other pages and blogs, like a survival guide, like what you've got here...

Bah

Bah, it's impossible to get back a deleted comment apparently. thebruce0 suggested a wiki page. It's not a bad idea. I'll look into setting one up. :)
