I think it is meant to be a hypothetical situation. I prefer specific questions regarding protocol for venomous snake bite. "A simple "What do I do if I get bitten?" tells me that someone does not want to do the research needed.

For one thing, I'm not too sure there is anywhere in AZ that there is a 6 hour gap from civilization, honestly. I've gone herping all over the place out here, and it usually takes about 2-4 hours TOPS to get out of the desert, and back into a city. This isn't a very big state, lol. And, are you writing from a laptop? lol.. That's awesome.  Well, I hope you're ok...

well lets see....first place a turniquet as tight as you can, then get a bucket of ice water to soak leg in, then get out the old trusty boy scout knife and cut from the toenail up to the left ear, then go to the nearest gun store and buy a stun gun (failing that, just find a cop and antagonize him untill he zaps you with his stun gun on the lips), oh yeah, did I mention the need to cunsume 4 gallons of alcohol?

Geeze Ray! Why didn't you just tell him to make sure he get's his whole head in front of both barrels?
We don't have to encourage these kinds of troll post (if that's what they are) by replying to them. A responce is just what this person is looking for and by replying to him, he wins. If we chose to ignore this kind of post or reply to as if it were real (in case it is) then they will go away.
Cheers,
Trevor

Let us not forget one must shave and put on aftershave as to smell nice for the ER staff. Also be certain to order from Mc Donalds and go outside with IV hooked up to smoke. Oh yes and by all means have them start the IV with Polyvalent in it...

That was from when I helped out at a serpentarium here. The serpentarium is where I got trained in venomous and experience with exotic hots.
But the pic is mine. I used to have a whoel series of him eating including a movie of the strike/hold. I have had a couple people try to take credit for it and have even seen it on a couple sites pawned off as their own
