Anonymous Coward User ID: 14834012 Australia 04/22/2012 11:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Actually that reminds me, anyone on here know how to build a faraday cage?? i wanna protect some of my electronics from a possible solar flare. Quoting: Nob at Night First, a microwave oven can work in a pinch....but, if you want to build one for larger items, it's not that difficult. Take a shed, 8'x10' and drive 8' ground rods in the ground around it, starting at the corners and then between them every 2'. Then get #6 ground wire and line the walls and ceiling with it, spacing the wire approx. 2"-3" apart. Make all the wire grounded together and attach it to the ground rods on the exterior, take the wire and attach it to all the rods around the exterior of the shed. After that, get 4'x 8' sheets of 4" foam insulted plywood and cover the interior walls & ceiling. Seal the seams with fire/heat electrical puddy and tape over with foil heat tape. I have many skills....but, I'm here in the US....would love to come to the down under! But, my wife would never entertain the thought. Good luck my friend! Thank you very much ohnonotagin!! you sexy beast!! |

Bo Gritz User ID: 17389107 United States 07/20/2012 09:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Greetings fellow survialists! Quoting: Nob at Night This is still a bit early days yet but i wanted to start this thread because i am interested to know how many people on here are on a similiar wavelength as me. Well anyway moving on, for a while now, i’ve been thinking VERY seriously about starting a community of like minded individuals to leave modern society behind and live in the Australian countryside (not the desert outback though). This is because quite frankly i am sick and tired of being constantly poisoned by the elite that rule the world, they poison our food, our water, our air, our minds and our hearts, so frankly, i want to leave. My beliefs are that our modern society, with all its technology and science, is not a healthy environment to live in, (or to raise children in for that matter) not just physically but mentally and spiritually also, and that while we live in this modern society we are without knowing it slaves to this society, and quite simply, i want freedom, true freedom, to live how i wish to live, to bring up and educate my children how i think they should be brought up and educated without indoctrination, without having to answer to or seek permision from anyone. This community would primarily be founded on the idea of living in the way that god intended for us to live. Out in nature, without technology, without science, working by the sweat of your brow, growing and eating our own pesticide and additive free, un-GMO food and building our own houses But also, i was thinking that this community in a lesser capacity, could be about survival, just in case a SHTF scenario did occur, after all there are many interesting and plausible theories about how the world will end such as, a giant solar flare wiping out all electronics, asteroids hitting us, nibiru coming in too close an orbit near us, a government planned alien invasion, various global depopulation plans.... and not to mention the NWO!!! I am a big believer in being better safe than sorry, and think that it would be good idea to build a community for those of us who are in the know, to survive. I originally wanted to do this on my own, and live basically a hermit sort of lifestyle, as i did not have any friends who were interested in living off the grid. BUT ALAS!! i don’t think it would be possible to undertake this sort of project on my own, even if i wanted to. I think that humans, not unlike wolves are pack animals and need each other, even if it’s just for company, which is where you, the enlightened people of GLP come in! I decided to make this thread in the hope of finding some similar like minded people, who are interested in this, and would potentially (if it all works out) be willing to help me set up and join this community, so if you are interested or have any tips or advice please post either on the thread or if you prefer message me personally. Thanks, nob at night PS: don’t get the wrong idea and think this is some hippie camp for smoking pot and having orgies, that is absolutely not the point at all Almost heaven [link to www.rickross.com] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 24499434 Mexico 09/27/2012 09:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | yeah definitely!! Unfortunately science has quite frankly caused more problems than it has solved, thats why it's my beilief that we all would be happier living in a world without technology Absurd. Applied science with technical know-how is what you will need to survive. Also you will need to get along with the extended community. In Mexico it is hugely important to trade and be on friendly terms with the food producers: the indigenous people. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 24520447 United States 11/10/2012 09:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I want to do this in the US i am willing to invest my money for the land and some other items but do not want to go it alone. If others are serikus and have knowhow and just a few bucks to get going i would be i terested. Im a jack of all trades ut a master at none. If i got 10 acres of ferfile land so ewhere it would be paid in full immediately We could build a few small cabins and use solar and wind. I have appr 25 / 30 k i could invest as pong as someone can do the driving when needed and be patient as i will be learning also. Im open anywhere as long as land is wooded and we are able to grow food and possible raise fish and small animals such as goats chickens and hogs for food anyineserious and want to exit this fucked up society also? ps we would have power also lol |

sandraeichler User ID: 61571230 United States 08/31/2014 06:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think this sounds like an awesome idea. I have been toying with these thoughts of my own for quite a few years. There would be advantages to having more of a community as well. I am so tired of everyone here on the east coast with horrible attitudes. There are hardly any decent jobs and it is outrageously expensive to live here. I would like to pack the things I like and need and go right off the grid with my little cat and dog. I am becoming not cynical but at the very least incredibly disillusioned with the way we are being treated in this country. It is near impossible to get ahead. The cost is enormous for just everyday living not to mention I think pollution and food and water sources are becoming absolutely toxic. Your way sounds like what we should all be seriously considering. I too believe all this technology is not healthy and we were never meant to just barely survive and sit at some desk all day doing some mindless work and making the 1% rich while we all work ourselves to a swift death. Way to go on the real thoughts. This will take effort but is the only way I see to go. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 15022872 Canada 08/31/2014 06:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is the sole reason I am joining this society, to work my way off of it, work solid, and get out..Save, buy land, farm, invite others whom want the lifestyle...maybe learn some carpentry as well, that's it folks, all you need, how to build with wood, how to grow fruits and vegetables. Simple and best way to live...Way we were meant to...I will seek out the hungry and invite them to live with me, if we all learn to garden or sew or build...we will thrive..feeding/helping/building for each other. Meditating! |
