Some are some arent. Globel warming is important but there doesnt seem to be much anyone
can do. I do what I can as an indivual but I am only one person, if more people got involved
it probley would make a difference. I dont drive anymore then I have to, and when I do drive
I try and ride my motorcycle. The emissions from it are alot lower then from a car and it gets better gas mileage. I dont use convential heat I use wood for heat in the winter. I generate most of my own power with water and soliar. I also compost what ever I can if I cant compost it I burn it.

To me the best way to reduce violence is try and get as many illegal guns and drugs off the street as possible. There are way to many drugs out there for people to get there hands on
and act like fools when they are under the influance. Drug addicts will do anything to get
drugs even steal or hurt someone to get what they need. I think if there were less people
making it so easy to get drugs there wouldnt be so much violence. I also think if it wasn't so
easy to get anykind of a gun there wouldnt be so much violence. A person with a gun gets to
feeling like they are 10 feet tall and bulletproof. Someone with a gun has a tendency to use it
needlessly. Because most people are affraid of guns and will do what they have to to keep from being shot.

I am most afraid of crashing on a motorcycle or in a car and burning to death. I am not afraid of
dieing I just dont want to die like that. From what I have read and been told burning to death is the most painful way of dieing. To me death is'nt a bad thing you dont have any worries any-
more atleast I hope one doesnt. I feel if there is a heaven and hell we are in hell here on earth.
You have PG&E on your back all the time, you have AT&T wanting something from you, all these compants want something and they want it every month or else. I deal with this fear the
best way one can, I try not to put myself in harms way. Sometimes that is really hard because people dont pay attention all the time, and change lanes on you or pull out in front of you because they arent looking. Like I sad I am not affraid of death and hope when I do die I will be with my family members who are already dead. And can not have to worrry about anything
anymore.

What I like the most about where I live is there are only 127 people in the town all total.
Everybody knows everybody and if something happens and a person needs help the town is there to help. My closest neighbor is a 1/2 mile away and for a neighbor you couldnt ask for a better one. I don't have PG&E I run my house off of a generator and solar power, I also have
a pelton wheel that generates power from water. I dont have any heat in my house except for
a wood stove, and the stove takes on the average 5 to 7 cords of wood a year to heat the house
in the winter. The only bad thing about needing that much wood is I usualy have to start collecting wood in May and hopefully can finish by September 0r October. During the winter
I spend alot of time removing snow and working on things that can be done inside.
During deer season I try to get a deer for my winter food, because sometimes I cant get out
to go to town to get real food or meat. Most people cant live like I do because they need stores
and other people around to socialize with. I don't care about socializing much because most people I know have to drink to feel social. As for stores I know we need them for certin things
but as a rule I only go to the store when I have to.

As for what I would change I would like to change the fire department. The fire department
is volunter and most of the volunters only show up when they want to. The reason being is
because they are usualy to drunk to respond. During the summer there are alot of water
rescues because people ignore the warning signs.

I would bring plenty of water and food, I would also bring some thing to start fires with and some kind of shelter maybe. If I could I would also bring a female companion to possibly past
the time with. I think if I knew I was going to an island for any period of time, I would like to be as comfortable as I could be. Thats not to say a female companion would make me very comfortable , because they can make one very uncomfortable at times. I also think if I could I would bring something to signal a plain or a boat.
