My personal (Matt Vrazel) item is a 'kit' that includes my diabetic supplies (insulin, pump, glucometer, etc.). For the eight other items, I propose the following: I'm so glad Matt is on my team because he has thought of everything! How can we help Matt control his food intake if he is Diabetic? My personal (Trish Randecker) item would be a a kit that includes sunscreen, hat and some protective clothing. What will help us get OFF this island? :O) 1. Toilet paper 2. Hand sanitizers 3. Mirrors to send signals 4. Toothbrush/paste 5. Knives for fighting off the wild animals 6. Coffee/creamer 7. Sleeping bag 8. Fishing net
 * 1) One 5-gallon bucket full of potable water (we can re-use the bucket to catch rain water).
 * 2) 500-ft of rope (useful for all sorts of things, including building shelters)
 * 3) Multiplier tool
 * 4) Flint (when used with the multiplier, we can start fires and it lasts a lot longer than a box of matches.
 * 5) 1 big skillet for cooking
 * 6) 1 big pot for cooking
 * 7) An air mattress (we can take turns sleeping on it, and get one comfortable nights sleep every 3 days!)
 * 8) 50'x50' waterproof tarp (good for shade and shelter from the rain)

I have a cousin in the airforce that did survival training. They had to survive 2 weeks in the forest with just their military uniforms and a safety pin, so I vote for a package of saftey pins! personally, I want to bring my pillow. If I have my pillow, I sleep better, if I sleep better I think better, if I think better, we are all better off! For the group. . . 1. Pkg. of safety pins. (safety pins can serve as hooks, connectors, etc. 2. Battery powered walk talkies so that we can reach each other when needed. 3. water filters (perhaps a Brita) 4. Scissors 5. writing utensils of some kind to record processes, maps, and to write notes to send across the ocean in a bottle. 6. shampoo
