Captain,
You might want to caution folks to choose the rocks they heat (or use to
ring a fire) with care. Those containing moisture have a tendency to
explode with great violence when heated sufficiently; which is lots more
exciting (at least momentarily) than quietly dying in your sleep. If we
are doing this the traditional way there is little CO danger.
A hot rock at the foot of your bed can make a night more comfortable,
or? A heated earth bed can make surviving a long cold night with 1 or no
blanket possible. A candle or two can provide heat in a snow cave.

Hi!
In my copy of William Tomkins book Indian Sign Language on page 3 there
is a picture of somebody on horseback. The caption under the picture says
"The author and "BLAZE" in 1890."
It is hard to tell but from the picture it appears that he is older than
a boy.

<HTML><FONT SIZE=2>Hi!

<BR> That makes sense. I agree that Tomkins' book was probabaly written <BR>later than 1890. Clark's book, while better written and provides more in <BR>depth information, unfortunately does not have any illustrations and makes <BR>it more difficult to understand.
<BR>
<BR> My Scouts, however, have picked up a few of the "adult" words from <BR>Clark's book and do not hesitate to use them when speaking Indian Sign to <BR>each other.
