Default Even a Caveman could do it

This is an item that people overlook when they talk about cavemen or

to survive under the conditions they lived in. Even a genius, out of his
own environment, is helpless unless and until he learns how to survive in
the new one. Our caveman ancestors were no dummies.

Ahhh, now you are looking good Dee.

This is what I have always known. It is not wrote memorization which is
a true sign of greater intelligence, it is the ability to meet the
unknown on uncertain terms and solve the riddles.

It is the ability to be dropped in the middle of the unknown and
unfamiliar and come walking out alive ... I think I am nearing the end
of this newsgroup now, damn jungle in here!!! tense-strained-look

To the true explorer, logic is his compass.

Warmest regards,
