Some Neat Websites I have Come Across



Here is a cool site for you to explore...http://www.rulesofthumb.org/ basically anything you can think of is on here and it puts it in a funny yet true since...for example...lets say you are in the woods LOST, and you had no food...and you were starving yet there is plants all over...you are not sure if it is safe to eat or not - well good thing you read Rules of Thumb because here is what it says:

TESTING FOR EDIBILITY If you are foraging for food but are not sure about the edibility of a plant, take a small amount in your mouth, chew it, and hold it there without swallowing for five minutes. If you feel no ill effects - such as stinging, burning or numbness - swallow, and then wait for eight hours. If by that time you have not experienced any cramps, pain, numbing, vomiting, or diarrhea, eat another handful of the plant and wait another eight hours. If there are still no problems, consider the plant safe to eat.
