How many people as they read an article say to themselves that 'it wouldn't happen to me I wouldn't have done that' when the truth of the matter is we see people doing these things all the time.

I think this is a great idea. Wayno, would you be willing to discuss the risks when it comes to NZ? That is assuming you haven't already in its own thread?
Your previous post is spot on. I'm fairly new to this, but even I know you never going hiking in jeans or anything cotton for that matter. A little bit of care, common sense and extra attention can go a long way.
