Ragnar, great analogy from Repo Man… haven’t seen or thought of that movie in a long while. Haven’t thought of black labels either, takes me back when I used to consider survivalists nuts. Maybe they were all just ahead of their time?

Tamquam, a splendid idea sir… I have seen small pamphlets of our constitution handed out at gun show tables, I’ll dig mine out and put your idea to work at my next study group

AWM, Transformers… that’s the weak part of the infrastructure. not the little ones on poles, but the large ones at substations. A round or two hitting those big ceramic insulators would do the trick I think, the current would do the rest of the work.

Despair is a sin. This isn’t over by far, in fact it’s just beginning. Keep faith in your friends and in the Lord… he’ll help you if you would only get up and begin. Start doing something and you’ll find yourself feeling buoyed.

Communicate, stockpile, THINK. Merry Christmas all, enjoy the season that celebrates real hope.
