Called which ? or both ? Anyway, right or not, you ain't gonna like the prize. Best of luck. I'll check back around this time Friday. The incessant ideological partisan bickering that this country is aflame with brings to mind a bunch of folks lost deep in the woods, arguing endlessly about the merits of individual trees while failing to even notice that he whole forest is on fire.
"...brings to mind a bunch of folks lost deep in the woods..."Just saw that post, it brings to mind.
Survival !
A group of people are lost in the woods.
A, “Leader” is selected.
The Leader, selects other people who know,
Fire making, Dry wood gathering, Hunting, Fishing, Shelter making, etc.
(What ever the situation calls for)The Leader, helps, but mostly makes sure all the things, needed for survival, are done, and if a person ’says’, they know how to build a fire, and they,
Can Not, they are replaced.
That is, Survival 101 !!!!!!!!!!!Most all cities have a, ‘Beltway’, which goes around the most densely populates areas.
It is Often said, Take 1,000 people, at total Random, from inside the beltway, and a 1,000 from out side.
Give them the Exact same things. Deposit them the North Woods.
900 of ‘Outside’ the belt way, will walk out.
100 of, ‘Inside’ the belt way, will walk out.
Their are 20 ways, to start a fire.
Which one works, is the BEST, way to, Accomplish’.
Their are 20 ways to identify, ‘dry’ wood,
Which one works, is the BEST, way to, Accomplish’.
Their are 20 ways gather food,
Which one works, is the BEST, way to, Accomplish’.
On and On and On.
Point is, it is NOT,
’This way or That way’,
It is, the one that works !So we have seen a, ‘Leader’, lead, and FAIL.
Now their is a New Leader, (See where it goes)
And history has shown, in Numerous Cases,
(to paraphrase),
the ones that stand in the Forrest and CRY,
Are simply left behind.
