I volunteer at a 17th century living history museum. One of the skills we teach our guests is how to make cordage from local plant fibers. The 17th c. militia re-enactors who come through tell us that, though they prefer not to, they have unwound the cordage to use as tinder. Do you carry any type of natural fiber rope that you could sacrifice if necessary?

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
