OK.. So I guess I will change my years... 1900's-1920's and I will take what little knowledge that I have back with me

However, the 1860's would still be great so I could meet my Great Great Great Grandfather...

Latecomer on this but I have to agree with nose on this one.I grew up in the woods of northern Michigan on a lake.With all the mosquitos and lake water I gulped down on accident while swimming we never heard of nor worried about west nile virus or brain eating amoebas or zebra mussels or lamprey eels. Now I'm all paranoid of my home enviroment thanks modern media and world.Thanks for all the GMO veggies and corn syrup and obnoxious cell phones and etc. I can't wait for the mother of all sunspots to knock us down a peg and make us self reliant and humble again. although I've said before I would miss talking to my overseas friends that I never would have met without a computer....Still...simple and humble is good .

It was delightful reading through this thread. Sometimes when I mull through SRP threads I feel like a bit of an outsider because it does seem the majority are hunters and men of the days of yore. I am a little more mainstream for better or worse. Don't get me wrong, I love my cigars and scotch. I just view the straight razor shaving as more enjoyable than the mach 3. I don't collect straights or anything really.

I am trully thankful for this community, it is enlightening on a number of levels.
