Look at hurricane sandy and the gas "shortage"

Had to bring in bring in the national guard to gas stations to keep people from knife fighting because they couldnt wait in turn...

The masses cannot act civil in small scale disaster scenarios...

Yes i know Hurricane Sandy was a pretty big event... That messed up the lives of a LOT of people... But its small scale compared global SHTF...

If people cant behave during hurricane situations...

Imagine the panic of widespread doom...

Glad i live very remote and know how to use a "cross bow"

And what MO is saying is correct...

Imagine this... Tomorrow...
A worst case scenario unfolds...

Our civilization is gone... Never will be again! (unless...)

There is 7 billion assholes on Earth...

Fuck it, lets say 3 billion die during whatever in the fuck just brought everything to a screeching halt...

Well after 10 years...out of the 4 billion thats left...
Surely the assholes would have killed each other off... Or died in the intial event... The people thats left are the rebuilders...

Lets say 1 billion rig up generators... Pedal bikes, solar panels, wind mills, whatever...

Well lets guess say i am 1 of that billion...

I know a decent amount of shit.

But i dont know it all... No one does!

If i got a problem and cant figure it out... It would be nice to have a way to access some form of system that puts me in contact with the other billion...

Surely out of the collective... I can solve my problem...

Surely we can rebuild the future... We can tackle the issues as a whole... Not just a small community... But as a planet!

The internet is the greatest invention of mankind.

The ability to type this message and have it exposed to a countless amount of people is priceless! Its something worth preserving.

Imagine the shit that could have been figured out 1000 years ago if those folks had the internet...
