I was thinking, If you do Bug Out you can't carry hundreds of books with you, nor can any one average human rememeber everything (No Darwinism arguments please) but once out and away and living off of the land one always finds themselves unsure of something.
I'm not saying you could load every book ever needed into one E Reader, but you could have a fair attempt of it, couple the E Reader with a solar charging panel (Stores sell them here in Australia for around $30 from time to time) and you could ensure you bring at least one thing with you that would never be useless, knowledge.
I for one would love to have it packed with as much information on my local area as possible, obviously some things are better to have in hard copy like maps, but for information on what plants can be eaten, or what variety of fish can be found in which river, down to a complete list of medical conditions, symptoms and remedies, we have a book that weighs a couple oif kilograms on multple uses for everyday items, i'd rather condense it down to one 500 gram or so E Reader.
Krime said to pack some entertainment, well one of these with a solar charger should bring hours of joy, if you like reading.
Thats my rant for the day.
