That's a great article! I would like only to say that LifeHammer is made in Europe and has been around for over 25 years! I personally own one as well as the US made ResQMe (the keychain version).

i really enjoyed the article on "Saving Your Life". The "Update Your First Aid Kit" slide show was especially interesting, and sent me on a Google search for more information. I found a great website that sells many first-aid items, including the Safety Bright Flashlight and the LifeHammer, www.saveyourlifeusa.com. There is some interesting educational information there as well.
