Re: Starting a New Life on Giligan's Island

Do I have to rub sticks together to make fire? And do I have to 
make my own knife by chipping flint? Assuming you've got food,
water, and shelter covered (and clothes, if it's not the tropics)
I'd look for something to either pass the time, or whatever might 
lead to getting rescued. But I think a radio made of coconuts is
a little unlikely. ;-}

Cheers!
