My "survival kit" is actually 3 separate kits. My truck box has a tool set, two jacks, tow straps, flares, patch kit for my tires, cans of Fix A Flat, double braided nylon rope, a blanket, sleeping bag, food, flashlight, shovel, water, emergency candles, matches and a book. No sense in being bored if I get stuck in the woods somewhere.

My "urban survival kit" is a small back pack with Cliff bars, water, first aid kit, knife, heavy survival blanket, 550 cord, fire starter, matches, lighter, an OR skull cap, light gloves, wool socks, a gore tex shell and pants, LED headlamp, spare batteries, a book, a small fishing kit, water purification tabs, a signal mirror, soap, small washcloth, a small bottle of rubbing alcohol and a small cook kit. Whatever else is in there escapes my memory right now. I also have several loaded magazines for both my AR15 and my Glock, and the AR and Glock are both strapped to the pack. For Zombies, of course.

My "almost every day in the woods survival kit" is a Camel Back Blowfish. I carry this when I mountain bike, day hike, cross country ski, bird hunt, etc. It has a heavy survival blanket, 550 cord, small first aid kit, water purification tabs, lighter, matches, firestarter, another OR skull cap with light gloves and wool socks, Cliff Bars, a small compass, mirror, knife, multi tool, small candle, LED headlamp, and normall a spare mag for my pistol.

There are a few things that I always have on my person, a knife, lighter, cell phone with a good charge, iPod, etc. I've also been looking for a small charger for my cell phone, something that can give a weak battery a boost and increase my chances of getting help if something does happen to me. Normally a pistol goes along with me.

I'd love to hear what others carry in their survival kits and less of the bickering that has been going on in this thread.
