Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
I did prepare. More than most. I am an avid GLP'r. I have supplies. Honestly I didn't see the gas thing coming. I'm not going to power a generator just so my wife and kid can have a night light.

What I am seeing is it is bad ad getting worse for a bunch of people. It could have been avoided - but I really see TPTB seem to want this.

too bad for you and others on your area who haven't prepared. We have 200 gallons of diesel, 100 gallons gasoline, 200 gallons propane, whole house generator and 600 gallons potable water in above ground storage as well as 1 yr. food supply. I also have 1kw solar and battery bank. Sucks to be all those fucksticks who think preppers are whacko.

Doom on. When doom hits I'll be running my generator and solar making ice cold cocktails and eating well while the zombies roam around. I'll pick them off with my .308 if they get too close.

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
We're praying for you guys. Glad you're okay for now. Stock up on all you can.

I've been experimenting with eating smaller amounts of food and it's amazing what you can get by with. Eat slowly, that helps.

Stick containers out if it rains. You can at least use that water to wash with and maybe drink if need be. Boiling it is the best way to purify it. But, you can also use un-perfumed household bleach.

Purifying by adding liquid chlorine bleach

If boiling is not possible, treat water by adding liquid household bleach, such as Clorox or Purex. Household bleach is typically between 5 percent and 6 percent chlorine. Avoid using bleaches that contain perfumes, dyes and other additives. Be sure to read the label.
Place the water (filtered, if necessary) in a clean container. Add the amount of bleach according to the table below.

Mix thoroughly and allow to stand for at least 30 minutes before using (60 minutes if the water is cloudy or very cold).




Treating Water with a 5-6 Percent Liquid Chlorine Bleach Solution

Volume of Water to be Treated Treating Clear/Cloudy Water:
Bleach Solution to Add Treating Cloudy, Very Cold, or Surface Water: Bleach Solution to Add
1 quart/1 liter 3 drops 5 drops
1/2 gallon/2 quarts/2 liters 5 drops 10 drops
1 gallon 1/8 teaspoon 1/4 teaspoon
5 gallons 1/2 teaspoon 1 teaspoon
10 gallons 1 teaspoon 2 teaspoons

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
The first rule of prepping is to prepare to stay in place but also prepare to leave.

When your in an area thats at sea level. ITS LEAVE.

You can't possibily conceive of staying in place even when prepped.

Plans go to hell in a hurry when you get flooding.

If you live in A DANGER ZONE like the sea level coast no way can you be thinking about staying in place. Thats suicide.

Flooding kills more people and makes more people homeless worldwide than any natural disaster period.

There are 43 million people in Nigeria made homless right now by flooding. Most will be permanent.

15 Million in Pakistan. Pakistan litterally sunk 10 feet this year. 10 feet. Their flooding is permanent.

Vietnam is doing the same thing right now. Sinking and permanantely flooding. Their sinking also by the coast.

This is more than Weather. Wake up. The world is going through huge changes on the way to alot of destruction.

If you live in and around natural dangers get going.

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL

Thank you all for the kind words and wishes. I want to clarify my family and I are in a good place, warm and safe. I have plenty of bottled water, however we are bathing in the chlorine water.

My situation is mild compared to most just a tad bit south and west of me. Some more strange things I have observed:

National Guard troops at a gas station just north of me.

Military Humvee Vehicles escorting a 500 gallon fuel oil tanker.

Cash Only everywhere! Even if they have power the cashiers are being told to only accept cash. Others have said you must pay cash at gas stations. No Credit/ATM accepted.

Here are some local news sites, but most of them require you to sign up to read. You should be able to see headlines though.

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
I know you're for real because I'm here too. The lights just went on yesterday afternoon. House kept warm with fireplace. There was some wood. No damage to house or this street. Lots of generators were running.

Police closed down the gas station two blocks away due to fights and people cutting the line. So they just shut it down rather than deal with the drama of what could end up happening.

The McDonald's ran out of food. They put signs up all around stating:

Sorry Closed. Opening Sunday. Awaiting Delivery

When Micdies runs out of food, you know it's bad.

The next town over had lots of tree damage. There are houses that have two trees fallen on the roof or some part of the houses. Looks like supreme devastation.

I made a thread explaining why this storm couldn't just be a coincidence. It is pure common sense....something you can ask yourself and almost feel. It will take you at least 5 mins to read through. You responded to my post barely seconds after posting without even opening the thread asking me if I want to look stupid..

Thread: Sandy Staged to push Global Warming Fraud - Obama's unprecedented response is the clue.

If you did open the thread and read through I am sure you might be the one that might look stupid for believing that this storm was purely coincidental.

And if it was the word "manufactured" that got to you, well I meant it was controlled and stirred perhaps even created.

We are well and ready as we can be for any further rounds of this stuff. We prepped to the extent of having a generator and fuel, with electricity we can pump well water and all is good. But the main thing is that we didn't get flooded. Even non-preppers around here are OK if a bit uncomfortable.

What matters more than prepping is not having the storm pick you out for special punishment.

Are you saying that all we have is weather knowledge but we cannot steer storms? Or that we would never do such a thing?

Think of this: why did GWB's storm (Katrina) hit worst the black areas (lowland) of New Orleans, while BO's disasters (Deepwater Horizon, Mississippi and Missouri River flooding, Irene, last year's Halloween snowstorm, now Sandy and the followup storm coming) affected almost entirely white areas?

No preperation can stop your home from sliding into the ocean or bays or stop 4 feet of flooding waters which is what happened across NY and NJ.

First of all, its called insurance.

Second, you can prevent it. Build a concrete home.

Are you 5 years old with name calling? Guess so. Get your facts straight. If you think insurance covers water damage from a hurricane, I have a bridge I can sell you. And tell the hundereds of people who lost their homes to the sea to go back 50 years and rebuild with concrete. Yea, I am dealing with a 5 year old. I'll go warm your baba now.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8318084


There are laws preventing you from building concrete homes, so that you cannot safeguard your home.

You guys are all fucking idiots. There are no laws saying what you can construct with. JUST BUILDING CODES TO FOLLOW. To the IDIOT that thinks Insurance Companies cover flooding. WHOOOOOOHOOOOO what an Idiot. NO THEY DO NOT. ACT OF GOD. God damn fucking idiots mouthing off when they don't even have a clue what they are talking about.

Yes anybody can build with concrete. What the fuck are basements made off. You just don't have basements at sea level fuck head. Fuck off.

We have been cut off, out of the loop for days not knowing anything but what the local media on the radio had reported.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26922019


I don't understand why you didn't have a portable radio with batteries or a crank up. That's your own fault. I was also on Long Island when it hit and was listening to my crank up the whole time and knew what was going on.

Also, there is plenty of food as many supermarkets have opened and fully stocked. Just drive around. Go further up north.

From what I see, yes some people had their homes damaged and in some cases destroyed, but for the most part people are just inconvenienced and complaining about not have their iPhones charged or being able to watch their favorite tv programs.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2271438


Hey, he just said two lines up he had been listening to local radio only, and you get on him for not having a crank radio.

Please try to read more carefully, and reserve fault finding and criticism. We don't need that here, we are trying to be helpful and useful.

The guy wasn't complaining about not having his iPod, he was giving us an informative boots on the ground report.

I imagine some of those people whose houses were destroyed might complain a little, and could even be forgiven for being a bit upset.

Pay attention, if your situational awareness remains at the same low level the next storm may leave you in deep doo doo.

South Shore - Hang in there. Bloomy and crew are full of more shite than a Christmas Turkey. Take care of your family and your neighbors. I'm up in the Bronx off of 231st and Broadway anf there are large segments/blocks without power since Monday night. That said, we've been lucky other than the inconvenience (no lights/heat) we all have four walls, roofs, food, water (all the stores on Broadway up here have power and are stocked) and no deaths. As many have stated before, those counting on the governement are in for a rude awakening and ultimately will be good and well screwed.
On another note, I love all the rigtheous posters grabbing the mantle of upper companion ("Well, if you weren't prepared...well, you were warned...If it was me, I would have.." and a myriad of other brilliant comments written from the saftey of their mothers' dry and well-lit basements) as well as the fuck new york and its inhabitants sentiment I've seen written with great frequency here. The people in my neighborhood are puerto rican, domincan, black, italian, jewish and irish (my peeps) and you'd be amazed - particularily given the repeated ignorant comments regarding nyc and its people - how honorble, compassionate, thoughtful and human they've been. Visiting NYC once or twice doesn't really give haters a right to slam a blanket judgement of all new yorkers (and judging from some of the comments if you were treated like shit you probably deserved it for being such a rube twit asshole.
That said, continued good fortune to all.

I am sorry to hear that, but I live in the real world, and in my real world his claims are absurd. Weather knowledge is valuable. With that said, I hope all will be good with you and yours soon.
 Quoting: Desert Fox


We are well and ready as we can be for any further rounds of this stuff. We prepped to the extent of having a generator and fuel, with electricity we can pump well water and all is good. But the main thing is that we didn't get flooded. Even non-preppers around here are OK if a bit uncomfortable.

What matters more than prepping is not having the storm pick you out for special punishment.

Are you saying that all we have is weather knowledge but we cannot steer storms? Or that we would never do such a thing?

Think of this: why did GWB's storm (Katrina) hit worst the black areas (lowland) of New Orleans, while BO's disasters (Deepwater Horizon, Mississippi and Missouri River flooding, Irene, last year's Halloween snowstorm, now Sandy and the followup storm coming) affected almost entirely white areas?

Do you think it's just a coincidence?

Ok, you win. We have never had hurricanes, river floods and such ever before or any where else in the world.
 Quoting: Desert Fox


Ever heard of weather wars. I have & the subject has been discussed many times here. But I think you are aware that storms can be created & directed. They have the technology & I think you know this too.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7554855

I disagree, we will leave it at that.

The first rule of prepping is to prepare to stay in place but also prepare to leave.

When your in an area thats at sea level. ITS LEAVE.

Wake up. The world is going through huge changes on the way to alot of destruction.
 Quoting: TrinityMountain


Totally agree. I am in the affected and this was one weird storm. There are more to come. The New Jersey map was changed. A lot of other maps have been changed prior to that. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that our coastal lands will be submerged in the coming years, and not just in the US. It's happening globally.

The Edgar Cayce map is starting to make sense.

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
too bad for you and others on your area who haven't prepared. We have 200 gallons of diesel, 100 gallons gasoline, 200 gallons propane, whole house generator and 600 gallons potable water in above ground storage as well as 1 yr. food supply. I also have 1kw solar and battery bank. Sucks to be all those fucksticks who think preppers are whacko.

Doom on. When doom hits I'll be running my generator and solar making ice cold cocktails and eating well while the zombies roam around. I'll pick them off with my .308 if they get too close.

Build your house upon a rock.....

But in all fairness, I bet you are not near sea level like they were.

Why the insult? What I was saying was that if you were at sea level most of your prep would have been in vain. ps. I am a prepper.

To those who say Obama didn't show up in NYC, the reason was that Bloomberg asked him not to come by because it would be too distracting with all that was going on.

thanks for the true update OP. it is a shame how the media stirs things to keep the sensationalism going. my prayers are with u.
 Quoting: J-Honey


Appreciate the update too. This should be a lesson learned for everyone. Prepare and be aware and vote like your life depends on it because it does.

I watched Geraldo Obama FOX bitch tonight only because he was talking to the people in effected areas. It appeared more of an Obama love fest with all the FEMA government praise dripping out of Geraldo's mouth. Anyhow someone in the crowd said something to Geraldo and he called them rude and headed toward them and then it cut to a commercial. Just wonder what was said. Anyone know?
