I've got a couple hundred pounds of Sealed Lead Acid batteries and a Honda Generator to boost them back up with. But I only use the electricity for things that I can't provide simply via other means: kerosene lamp is much preferred for light. I'm hoping to get one of those methanol fuel cell generators next year, that will greatly simplify things. |

Nah, a survivalist has to have at least a Barrett .50 cal. The People's Republic of Washington won't let me have one of them so I can't rightly call myself a survivalist.

Yup, and he's fully justified stockpiling it by needing it this week.
Probably left over from late December of '99 anyway. |
