YOUNG SAMBURU LINDSEY VOTED OUT
November 15, 2001
After a tie vote between Lindsey Richter and Tom Buchanan at Tribal Council, Lindsey, the 27-year-old former advertising account executive from Portland, Oregon, was voted out of the Samburu tribe. Lindsey split the initial vote with Tom Buchanan, and the subsequent revote resulted in a deadlocked tie. Lindsey became the sixth Survivor to be voted out of Africa because she had received votes at previous tribal councils, whereas Tom did not. Before the second and final vote, a teary-eyed Lindsey, who earlier had considered voting against one of her allies in a last-ditch effort to save herself, explained, "On the way here tonight, my dignity took over. I don't care if I am voted out tonight, because I didn't vote for a friend of mine [Brandon]. I am leaving with my pride." Lindsey became the sixth person voted out of SURVIVOR AFRICA.

Rationing Food
At Boran, the merge (the point at which the two tribes merge and become one) was on everyone's mind. Concerned about the small amount of food they had left to last them until the merge, yet not knowing when the merge will take place, the Tribe discussed how much they should eat. Worried about running out of food, Ethan said, "We rationed our food so that we would finish what we had left in three days. If we eat the rest of the food, and in three days there is no merger, we would be screwed."
Night Shift
Over at Samburu, Tom and Lex endured a five-hour night shift, on guard lookout for animals entering the camp area. The two men voiced their frustration about the lack of responsibility the younger members of Samburu have shown, taking only one-and-a-half-hour shifts. Weary from lack of sleep, Lex complained, "We have been staying up all night for over two weeks. These guys have no concept of what a three-hour shift is. They just throw a log on the fire and go to bed." (Lex on working the night shift)
