JnG - I’d *love* to spend time in an urban repurposed warehouse style space.

You'de be more than welcome at our place, if for some reason you cross the atlantic again.

my zlite would qualify as destroyed for most people i think. i bought it in 2010.
It was a very good buy.
It works fine down to about freezing temperature.

Most notable change is that synthetic sleeping bag are now much better than before, so you might consider them over a down sleeping bag, because they are cheaper, and still much less sensitive to humidity than down sleeping bags. Besides that, I'm not very aware of what brands are availlable in nort...

You sound like you already know how to chose good camping gear.
I don't understand what kind of advice do you want.

chimp are as close to us as bonobo are. They exhibit a very different behavior.
I think the sexual behavior is much more linked to recent evolutionary context, than old genes from millions of years ago.
I'm not saying bonobos are a wrong model for modern human

Our brain are getting dammaged all the time. Fighting against it is like fighting agains a reeceeding hairline. But we can compensate for it up to a point. Like how it's much easier to learn a third language than a second one, because you already know how to order the knowledge. I'm not saying it's ...

A return ticket to houghton from basel only cost 500.- it doesn't seem to be very isolated. Also, it is big enough to qualify as civilization. Also, engineering student aren't fierce competitors when it comes to mating for heterosexual males :D But they are a good demographics for any ERE 2.0 projec...

what about houghton, Michigan?

ok, it's kind of cold in winter, but not that much.
There are otherwise all the amenities people asked for. It's as climate change proof as can be, prices are within range.

killer type activist don't wan't you to change your mind, they wan't you to be afraid to express any thought they haven't validated before. They are the main reason it's so hard to have public discussions on politics. I think most activist aren't like that. Even on the other side :D Then, many peopl...

the name killer is misleading, it's more about having power on others than killing them. Also, I think the best game are those that allow those four instinct to be satisfied at the same time. Hunt : Showdown is a good example of that. You play in duo or trui, which is perfect for socializing, you ne...

the six subjects are: dogs, game knowledge, laws, nature conservation and protection, weapons, hunting techniques. I think the exams are mostly a way to keep people out of that activity. Other places do it by charging more money. Big game are boars, deers, roe deer, chamois, there are also ducks and...

i suceeded in my theory exam for the hunting license. Big success!

no one in the group is from belgrade, so a good address would be great if you have access to such information.

I remember the fortress, I was there in 2006. I really liked it and went there everiday. I didn't know about kajmak, it looks like something I might like.
Is there any spot to swim in the Danube?

I'll spend the last week of August in Belgrade, and the 2 or 3 weeks before in Latvia. I'll attend ERE fest in Latvia, and I'll be with a group in Belgrade.
I really would like suggestion about Belgrade. Is anyone living there?
In Latvia, I'll mostly chillingly explore the coutryside.

I think a lot of the call of nature, is because we still need to feel how much a part of NATURE we are. At least for me, hunting will be about experiencing existence how NATURE made us experience it for the last million years. Learning about Nature is just a mean to this end. Technology freeing up s...

i borrowed my neighbour's car and dammaged one front lamp.
I found a spare one in a scrapyard for 120. new was 430 and unobtainable.
cars are expensive to use.

I think there is one variety of colorblindness that makes it easier to distinguishe nuances of brown in the forest. But Red deers and Roe deer have similar colors, so color blindness shouldn't interfere, Red deers are much bigger. Males weight around 150kg, while male roe deer are closer to 20kg. Bu...
