However, this week brings reminders and helpful information. A designer that I work with also happens to cohost a quarterly podcast called Taverncast (available on iTunes or here). Their most recent edition focused on disaster preparedness. The podcast included an entertaining walk through of increasingly desperate levels of disaster in a scenario and an excellent interview with Matthew Stein, author of the book When Technology Fails.
I learned that most caterpillars and other colorful bugs are poisonous so don't eat them. I also learned several methods for purifying water and finding various sources of food. This is good stuff and not just for disaster, also for avid hikers who may find themselves stranded. Take a listen or read the book. And next time you see me, ask me if I have a plan. I just might.
