Mav, your idea bout buying land is an ok idea. If your serious about prepping, im sure you are, listen to what BB and others have to say. Even if it comes off as negative or bashing, theres a certain amount of wisdom in words.
Dont let your intrigue about this forum wane. So an idea got bashed, hell i voted for Obama, now thats a bashing.
This is the best local prpper forum anyway, (until that Okie specific takes off). Hang around and lurk, drink some aged elderberry wine and enjoy.
Also read "Selco", his writings and blog is the best the internet has to offer.
Thanks, Lurco...I appreciate that....
