Re: actual escape plan...

I have an exit stairwell 25 paces from my desk. I would use it to walk out of the building every day if possible (exercise + route familiarity), but the street exit is an...

This perfectly sums up my original intent for the bag.

I'm open to potentially evolving it from there, but that really captures my original goal.

This has already provided some great food for thought. I appreciate everyone's replies and look forward to more input.

This bag used to contain a dedicated dust mask. While the pack was...

After many years of working in sprawling corporate parks, I'm back into a high rise again.

I dug out my old "high rise evac pack" that was sitting in a closet. This bag is NOT meant for...

My Foster #31 arrived today. I can't say enough good things about it. Todd makes these in 10 or 12oz: mine is the 12oz.

Did you end up including a printed receipt in the box?

Just like you, they didn't ask me for one, but I'm not sure if it might expedite processing.

My return request was just approved. Thank you again for your help!

Thanks, Roy!

I've seen these symbols in various high rise buildings since I was a kid. I've always thought this symbol...

Mind if I ask what you entered for "Description of Failure" on the return request? Since your request was already approved, I just want to maximize my chances of same.

Thanks so much for the info. I know what I'll be doing as soon as I get home this evening...

Can you provide detail? This is what I get when I try your link:



Edited to add: I purchased an EOTech 512 in Nov 2008 because the interwebs told me they were awesome. It now sits around...

Yikes. I would personally just send that back and request a refund.

Here's syntax for excluding multiple subforum:

Agreed. I would never bother to comment at the article page itself. But as long as it's being discussed here, I figure it's worth calling out the BS.

The difference in context is massive. Craig would never advocate you try to eye gouge someone "as they are coming in to tackle" you. He also doesn't say that hitting the eyeball is "terribly easy."...

Technique makes a massive difference.

If you ask the average [untrained] person to deliver a head butt, they will use their neck to pull their head back and whip it forward. Bad idea! Bad for the...

Just to illustrate a little better for the folks who won't read the article;



1. No: it's absolutely not easy to touch someone's eyeball while they are coming in for a take down or strike.

I respectfully disagree. Claiming that a human "cannot attack" while suffering pain is remarkably easy to falsify.

It's dangerous advice, especially followed by the classic recommendations of eye...

Ha!

Yea, if it really worked that way, I can't imagine our evolutionary branch would have grown this far.

Although the thought of people behaving like fainting goats is amusing.

Yep. Well... technically lots of reasons. But speed limits haven't always been set for safety, as you seem to imply.

And even worse, in some parts of America speed limits are illegally set...

I sincerely wish it had only been that long. They've been saying it's months away at least as far back as 2011.

I agree with Tom, BigT, and Cecil: ECQC isn't really great to "prep" for. It's not as if it's a standardized test with repeatable scores: really weird shit happens. Just as much as anything, that's a...

I don't take it that way at all. I understand that asking you hypotheticals without clear definitions doesn't lend to easy answers. I appreciate the link.


Thank you: that's very helpful. No way...
