@EarlThePearls @Monadnock From time to time I take someone with me to the backcountry. Sometimes it's a shock to them and doesn't fit their romantic notions of camping.Most times it's just me or kinfolk.

@EarlThePearls @Timmerax And a good pressure cooker. Not an Aluminium one.Alcohol is a necessity. A pressure cooker can distill alcohol and water.

@DeWalt “I have gun and lot of ammo. I will firmly stand my ground." Good luck with that.There is a huge number of people already organized in violent groups, ready andskilled in violence, who wait for the system to collapse to jump in. People with more guns, more ammo, more skills than you, and less morals and ethics. You need to lower your expectations.

@EarlThePearls @DeWalt @Mnorman Pig insulin works. That's where they used to get all of it. But you can see how expensive that became to produce, so they figured out how to synthesize it. Science.

@DeWalt The greens that people picked from nearest hills were supposed to be edible, based on rumors, or older people who had some knowledge about edible plants.

@DeWalt Not to downplay the physical threat, but preppers today usually focus only on the physical threat, on fighting, weapons, and similar, while there is much more to everyday survival.

@DeWalt I am pointing out this as an explanation why when the collapse happened, people from the same family tended to quickly go together and form group. Suddenly you were in the same house with your grand uncle.It was like that because strong blood tradition was present. It is not like that anymore. That tradition has faded away

@DeWalt This one hit me:But when the SHTF, pretty soon a traditional way of life jumped in. Women were staying home, taking care of kids and food, and men were going out moreactively.It was not rule, but it was usual.Usually, women were the ones who knew how to make food from something that did not look like real food or to make it edible, or to comfort sick or frightened kid.Women were the pillar of everything.

@DeWalt In my case (I am talking about people who were not preppers at all) people who suffered most were people who failed to recognize the new rules.

@DeWalt had kinda "philosophy“ over time that went something like "I'lldo whatever I can, and the rest is not in my hands anyway.“Over the times it grew into "It will be whatever it has to be.“ It worked for me at that time.sounds simple, but this philosophy helped me through some of hardest periods because I understood that I can do only "this“ amount of effort, but there were so many things that were way out of my control, and way random. If worried too much about it, might lose my mind

@DeWalt Note: do not mix alcohol abuse with fact that it is a great idea to store alcohol forSHTF. Have alcohol for a trade, or drink, but do not try to solve heavy times withalcohol abuse. It does not work
