I found this site tonight and cannot stop reading the threads! How exciting to have the opportunity to communicate with people who get PO!
I have known the term and what it entails for quite some time, but only recently realized the urgency about eight months ago. Don't ask why - I can't figure out how I missed putting it together. I was probably too focused on Fema work camps, global warming, North American Union, the collapse of our economy, or hell - maybe even birdflu!
It is top of mind now. That's for sure. What bothers me most is I know I can't stay where I am (even though I love it with all my heart) and on top of that I have no idea where to go. Sometimes I lay at night thinking something like this "Ah ha! If there is enough railnfall there then I can do this, and as long as I am on the coast then I can escape in a boat, ....wait a minute... there are too many people there or the government there is too unstable or whatever" I don't own any land, yikes! No one wants to start a sustainable community in Northern California/ Southern Oregon (that I can find out about). It is beginning to really get to me. Not too bad - I am a stable person- but I am getting frustrated. I am the kind of person that needs to be prepared for huge events such as this. I have wanted a "doomsday" underground lair right outside of an
eco-village since I was 13. damn it - why didn't I make that my top priority
As for now, I have my books and DVDs, emergency supplies, passports, compost pile (on my apartment patio), and bicycle to ride everywhere on the weekends. (need to get in shape for when TSHTF)
Well, thanks for letting me ramble on and I look forward to learning and conversing with great people!
