Or at least I did 30 years ago when I would go out backpacking in the Wallowa Mountains for a week at a time... don't know how many of those skills would come back nowadays. I probably ought to get some bullets for the .22 so I can go out hunting, eh...<BR/><BR/>Seriously though, I get a bit concerned about levels of potential violence in our society if too many people lose jobs.

A 7 or 7.5 is bad enough. <BR/><BR/>I figure that I can go at least six months without needing any help, I just don't want to be anyone else's problem when others will need the help.<BR/><BR/>Actually, I suppose I could go for years, depending on what else was going on around me. Big cities are going to have a biggest problems, out here where it's more country it wouldn't be so bad. <BR/><BR/>I guess I'll write a post about my views on a so called armageddon.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.com
