As a non-parent, easy for me to say it was the parents' fault. Not that I didn't do really dumb things as a kid when my parents weren't looking. Somewhere, somebody's got a movie of a stupid kid climbing native american footholds about 75' up a rock face. Yup, that was me, and survived to remember it. If not which national park we were camping in.

So... reduce your risk by building a house that needs no heat? If you don't split firewood, or fire a stove, your risk decreases.

You're correct, life is about managing risk. Like hunt, or starve. While I wouldn't climb those rock faces anymore, I don't mind using my screw. Or an axe for that matter. While I know the same number of people hurt with each one, neither frighten me. Tools require respect. I have a lot of them, virtually all will bite me if I let them.

But I'm also planning to move a log cabin for a friend on a contraption I've never tried. It's an ex-military container mover. Gotta have some fun sometimes. Just make sure nobody gets hurt. Nobody has with my screw.
