[Any tip would be a good tip concerning that lost airliner.] Well I hope you have a safe and enjoyable trip, Dr. Wolff. I hear Africa can be a dangerous place. I think survival expert Cody Lundeen made two or three survival episodes there that were very entertaining. Hopefully you will have armed forest rangers protecting you at all times when you are in the bush. Since you are rich, I suggest that you look in the market for a GPS device that will inform authorities where you are when it is turned on; And it would be a good thing for that same device to show you where you are on the world map. Who knows, perhaps it would be better to get two separate devices?Michael Llenoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05689105280485818465noreply@blogger.com
