#### things I still need to incorporate:
- my "two practical knots" spiel -- 1) recycling grocery bags, and 2) how to tie up cables
- huge diversty
- show the range of ropes avilable: fishing line, UMHW/kevlar, webbing, large marine mooring line[1], wire rope
- shaw the range of ways it's used: netmaking, surgical sutures, lifting/rigging [2],
- care of rope
- ends: natural should be whipped or taped, synthetic should be melted
- preventing wear: prevent dirt and grit from working inside the rope
