I was watching the Weather Channel this afternoon and was pretty sure I saw Ben on there. The show was Think You Could Survive This, and this episode was surviving Bear encounters. It was a very informative show. Ben, was that you?

Did he?  Survive, that is.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Ben might have been a double for the bear >:D
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.

I thought the same thing.

He was in his Park uniform in the interview talking about bear encounters, the do's and don'ts, if you have a problem.

It was a different guy, I went back a few episodes and saw that it was a different guy.

I did not see the weather channel program - but I do not think it was me. I was on the travel channel many years ago when they did a segment on Yosemite Bears. I was walking through a campground talking to visitors. There is a guy who put me and my flutes on youtube.
