    I just watched "Cast Away" again for the first time in over 20 years. The scenario in the movie that caused Tom Hanks' character to get stranded would be such a perfect opportunity to disappear and have peace. Solitude and safety. No job and no need for one.

      Living like a caveman for years. Think about it. Take away your clothes, food, comfortable home not to mention anything you have now at your disposal right now. No human contact, at the mercy of your survival skills and whatever nature throws at you. It would not be the easy getaway you think it is. Are you thirsty? Where are you going to get that drink of water from? Blisters from sun exposure. Not just laying on the beach for vacation. You'd be constantly working to stay alive not to mention the psychological effects of no human interaction. Maybe you could do it....but I doubt it.

      I've seen them in the Bahamas too. Once we stopped at a sand bar. There was a coconut that was sprouting washed up on shore. We planted it in the middle at the deepest part. That was 34 years ago. I've often wondered what it looks like now.
