Problem: I don't know where to find bear hands.  Might hafta just use my
bare hands instead, or grow and sharpen my fingernails to imitate bear
claws.

Oy, see what happens to me from hanging out with you?  {8^D  Keith, if we
ever suffer from an EMP that fries everyone's electronics, I plan to find
you and make you the royal survival consultant.

That comment alone will drive the market for B vitamins.  We are a society
in desperate search for a buzz.  I wouldn't be surprised if that is somehow
related to a paleo thing: the old ones knew of certain plants that would
cause a buzz.  Perhaps it predates alcohol and marijuana.  We used to call
it loco weed.  Horses would sometimes find it, and once a horse had loco
weed, they would act crazy.  Some would develop what appears to be analogous
to a human addiction to dope.  After that the horse would go searching for
loco weed, and wasn't ever good for much of anything else.
