14, you look more alive and happy in that video than I would have thought possible a year ago. The truck may not be moving, but I think the real goal of this trip has been well and truly accomplished. You made your pilgrimage, you put in 6 solid weeks of work, and you found yourself again.

Go pet your pussy, recharge your batteries, come back after the truck thaws and finish it proper. This story ain't over.

The reasoning behind having any kind of wood-burning object inside a pop-up camper is highly suspect.

The camper has a built-in propane stove.

Well that's a fair concern, but unless we pony up for a propane tank Dave's options are:

1. Continue trying to survive on cold canned food
2. Just be careful

Wood is carbon neutral? Isn't oil just old wood that turned into oil?

Oil/gas/coal was originally biomass that mas made from atmospheric CO2, but that mass has been buried underground for millions of years and hasn't been participating in the carbon cycle. So when you dig it up and burn it, you're adding CO2 to the atmosphere that on human scales wasn't there before.

Wood is made from CO2 that was harvested generally within the last century, so there's no net increase in CO2.

AUGUST 4, 2018: Hurricane Sherman Scrambles the Death-Dealer crosses the Florida peninsula, becoming the first of what will be later declared Death Storms. Picking up millions of gallons of Panther Piss from the Florida wastes, the storm is ignited by a stray spark. The miles-wide flame filled conflagration then turns due north for Atlanta.

When reached for comment in his rolling command center in the storm's eye, Florida's Governor was quoted as saying, "I AM AWAITED IN VALHALLA" before biting the reporter's nose off and throwing it to a cheering crowd.
