Is it possible to let us know what and how much they asked him to put aside? It kinda gives us a clue as to long long we should be preparing for. Thanks They didn't say. All they said was to put away as much as possible. No explanation as to why, nothing. Just to start prepping. :) They had to give him some kind of direction otherwise some of the dunderheads won't prepare correctly. Know what I mean? Or isn't he allowed to say? If not, that's cool. I understand. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 2891544 United States 12/17/2011 01:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No, I see you're one of the Christians that many seem to enjoy arguing with and I'm just asking so I know. I've noticed that many fellow believers don't really accept the bible as 100% fact, they pick and choose and that opens them up to deception, that's all. I do believe it to be 100% factual. Have to admit though that I am guilty of not following through sometimes. I do try my best though. :) I understand! This is only a suggestion based on my observations of Christians on GLP, please take the time to read or listen from Hosea through Malachi, it really tells us what's going to happen when the "end times" get rolling and it will help you and those you encounter from being deceived. I see way to many people who think they can make the text say what they want it to say instead of what God is telling us. |

If the US Military is planning to war with the Narco Drug Terrorist, it'll drive illegals to the border and strain resources.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 4393568 United States 12/17/2011 01:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks for the heads up. Here's a link of tips for people who haven't prepped yet. Thread: Last minute tips for parents when the SHTF If things get truly bad, one of the most difficult ways to prep is lighting. Batteries run out after awhile, but the new LEDs last a long time. There are new dynamo flashlights that charge up a supercapacitor after 2 minutes of winding. Then the light works for 30 minutes. This can be 100,000 times (estimated) and works without batteries. Regular dynamo lights work with an interior battery that will fail after about a year. Worth knowing for prepping. The Native American melted rendered animal fat by soaking dried cattail heads over a six hour period. Then they could produce light for about six hours of burning. From my research, it seems to be the best way to light using natural materials. Of course, caution should be used for burning anything indoors. Wax can be made from two main plant sources: sumac and bayberry. Sumac is what the Japanese use to make candles for religious ceremonies and its supposed to burn well. Sumac also grows throughout the country. Getting oils for oil lamps is problematic from oil presses based on large plant amounts that must be grown. Some sunflowers varieties produce more oil, but no more than 3 gallons from growing 2500 square feet of them. Pine resins can be easily collected and burned for short periods. So can birch bark, and birch oil can be made from the charcoaling/drip method, and this will burn well too. Naturally these may seem like more extreme methods of prepping since it goes way beyond standard 30-60days of preps, but I think now it's a good idea to think long term. See the link for lots of similar ideas and many basic ones on pragmatic ways of prepping. |

I should probably work on the rest though eh? Goodbye, halcyon days... There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |
