Odds 'n Sods:
After a near-death experience, the post-nuke television drama series "Jericho" returns
to CBS on Tuesday (February
12, 2008). It is noteworthy that "Jericho"
was resurrected from cancellation by popular demand from loyal fans, who inundated
CBS officials with shipments of 40,000 pounds of peanuts. As previously
mentioned in SurvivalBlog, I have hopes that both "Jericho",
and "Terminator:
The Sarah Connor Chronicles (on the Fox network) will in some
small way help get people to "think outside the box" about
the fragility of our modern society and motivate them to prepare for more
inimical times.
OBTW, for anyone that wants to chat about either series, there is both a The
Sarah Connor Chronicles Yahoo Discussion Group and a Jericho (TV
Series) Yahoo Discussion Group.Both of these are moderated by a SurvivalBlog
reader.

John R. sent us: Couple
survives 12 days in snow. John's comments: "This is
why
everyone should have carry a kit in their vehicles. The couple made it out alive,
thankfully, though one rescue worker died as a result of over-exertion. But
it doesn't sound like it was easy." Meanwhile , Craig sent this: Hundreds
Of Motorists Still Stranded On I-90. Craig asks: "I wonder how many
of them had winter survival kits in their cars?"
