um...about the sacred rock? It appears to be pumice to me. Not hard enough to spark... Pumice is a volcanic rock which should be very plentiful on this island. Anyone remember the Lava soap commercials???

Someone used the lens from binoculars to start fire--I think it was Survivor Africa.

I think after the one survivor where someone used glasses to start the fire - it was later revealed they werent "real" glasses, but strong magnifying glasses to start fire with, that they now check for perscriptions.. not sure if that's true, just read it on "the internet"

I wear glasses, the lenses are plastic. My glasses used to have glass lenses and were very heavy. Plastic lenses are much more comfortable, but they scratch easier than the glass lenses. You need glass lenses to start a fire. I was wondering about the leg too. I will laugh and laugh if that rock could've been used to start a fire! I too wonder how they can go so long (4 days, wasn't it) without water and w/o getting sick.

I've often wondered why they never show them saving rain water. Maybe the survivors do, but it is edited out. Plants with broad leaves, like a banana plant, would be ideal for catching rain water - at least enough to wet their "whistle".

i don't understand why no one learns how to build a fire before they come out for these competitions. if i wanted to be on a show like this i would for darn sure learn the basic skills before going through the process of applying.

It looked like the some of the men did study how to build a fire and I think it was mentioned that they tried for a long time to start one. I think it's just very difficult to start a fire with the damp material they have to work with. It's probably much easier in a drier climate. I know Jeff Probst mentioned in a press conference that during All-Stars, their experts told them it wasn't possible to start a fire in those conditions without flint. The producers knew ahead of time that the contestants were not going to be able to build a fire.

that seems rather cruel to purposely dehydrate people.

Speaking of the men, I didn't think I'd like Sarge when I saw the previews. I had it in my mind he was going to come on shore and start barking orders (which would lead to his downfall) but I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised at how he is playing the game. I kind of like Sarge and the psychology of his game strategizing thus far.
