@AlreadyBarcoded Oh Im a troll because I rely on logic and empirical data. Why don't you take the James Randi Challenge if you think it works for you? If you dig anywhere on the surface of the earth long enough you will find water. But, I guess that makes me a troll. I would tell YOU to troll elsewhere if you want to propogate the ignorance that it takes to assert that dowsing may have some legitimacy. Sorry to have exposed you to a helping of REASON.
@jaekn lol?, any woman that agrees to live out in the wilderness like that is cool as shit if you ask me.
most woman nowdays are more concerned with texting all day on their iphones/blackberrys, sitting on facebook, and watching jersey shore/real housewives
I will bet if his career picked up, he'd be out of those sheds. This is about money and not getting back to nature. Money makes Green go away real fast The Enviros are fear mongering people into the woods and then they'll sit back and wait for the poop to hit the fan with economy and say, Im glad we're not them now, but if it doesnt happen there is going to be a lot of unhappy campers in the woods waiting for the sky to fall
@JesusNonEnviromental you are wrong. You know how much it cost everything in there ? The electric system is a fortune, 60% of that is the battery and in 3-4 years you need to buy new ones - is not on demand system, and is very expensive + the land price .... with all that money he can buy a house in the city and pay the bills. I bet is just a tv show .. a business and he will get his money back, just bring the family a few times, take some shots - like they live in there .. :) ..
@Jak19835 Is just a TV show... and he improve the property, make it "green" ... resale for a big profit , or make a summer camp , survival training , so on ...
@Kahur2007 If you want to make an intelligent statement, how about you use proper spelling & grammar so that it is readable. I also doubt it's just for T.V, it's not like he's the most popular man on the planet so I highly doubt it's for publicity so stop flapping your gums and get out of your chair.

All that snow , and he is complaining about how they didn't have any water? Did he ever think to pack that snow into containers, and then boil it for use? Doesn't look like he did, but I think this show is faking a lot of stuff just to seem more interesting to some people.
the difference is book smarts are what intellectuals base reality in . the problem with that form of smarts is you can make up your own reality .street smarts are what can and cant be done .its learned through trial and error and in my opinion is superior because it deals in fact and experience , not theory .book smarts may help you get there a little quicker if the source in a reliable one (based on experience ,not theory, which is street smarts)its just someone figuring out the work for you .
@EnterTheTerrible This isn't difficult to understand. Book smarts is knowledge obtained verbally or through text(such as books). Street smarts is knowledge gained through experience(trial and error).
Street smarts is more useful than book smarts, but book smarts is still important.
@visamedic street smarts = what can you learn on streets : how to steal stuff, con people, steal cars, drug crimes .... so on. Because all people have a common life experience: friends, accidents, family. Stupid people with no education claim "street smarts" ...and you know way they do that. Based on experience: can take your hole life to learn something - or a few hours if you read a book and you learn XP from somebody else .That is way book people rule the world and not the "street smart".
heh, pretty cool stuff, kids skiing around in forest, reminds me of stories my grandma told about her life during the 1930-40s in Finland. Skiing, walking, cycling like dozens of kilometers to school or church or grocery store. Life was different back then (at least in the countryside!)
having done something like that myself, I tend to eventually yearn back to the city life though, but it's a welcome change I think. Once you get back, everything modern feels somehow new again LOL?!?!
@SeraphCutie Which does she have? If she has "book smarts" then she should know what snow is. If she has "street smarts" then she should know that there are people better suited to educate her children. I think that is just something that stupid people say to excuse themselves.
@jacksawild I could go on a long rant explaining the difference, but I'll keep it simple. Someone who doesn't understand gravity can still cook, and someone who wants to haul water when the roads are covered with snow can still do calculus. Just because you don't know a common fact or two doesn't mean you can't be a physicist. Math is math, science is science. A false conjecture doesn't make your IQ below 90. Everyone has dumb moments. Even you, for calling people with street smarts "stupid".
This life is the way it should be,all you wanna be save the planets,get a life,I believe he made a good choice for his family.Face it how many wemon would even give this a chance ?? I can say mine did and is,all mine wanted was a good wood stove and a way to wash clothes, talk about demanding,just kidding I love the good life. Smiles-dont knock it untill you have lived it.
