Tidbits Volume 1

Researching primitive living aspects forces one to do a lot of reading and sorting. In this process a lot of information is read, and lots of good information is not retained.

Tidbits will be full of random, singular, unordered, but potentially useful pieces of information that don’t have a home otherwise. Tidbits will be updated as information is found, and new volumes added as needed.
