Ah, sorry to have confused you. WiFi had no part in my
rescue. My two friends did have to drag me face down
out of the muddy ditch and then shoulder carry me
about a 1/8th of mile out of the woods before a kid
with a 4-wheeler hauled me the rest of the way.

What WiFi is doing for me is keeping me sane and
connected to the world. My wife makes sure I get fed
and bathed as required. Advice: if you plan to break
your leg or other bones requiring confinement to a
bed, make sure your wifi works and you have a good
woman to take care of you, otherwise, you're screwed.

Ya gotta hand it to Laura Didio; she knows how to toss
a sound byte.

Thanks, following my doctor's and wife's orders. She
just gave me a buzz cut so I don't have to worry about
greasy hair. Very practical.
