How about a tin foil section?

Post by GS78 »

Most of you think I wear my foil hat to often, but I think we could use a survival/bugout thread.... there are a lot of advantages to being prepared for anything. Water purification, medical supplies storage and usage, farming techniques and herbal remedies etc.. I just read an article about the emerging Bartering boom that is taking place around the country already. .......so ..... :whistle: What say you?

Sounds good to me.

There is nothing wrong with being prepared with a plan and supplies. I have a friend that has topographical maps of the mountains in our area( just in case).

It's a great idea, but can't we come up with a better name. When i think of the tin foil hat i think roswell and the crazys who claim to have been abducted by aliens.

Agreed, that could stay under general though as I don't see it being of any great size. I could be wrong but I would start it as a thread myself...

I was hoping Rick would call it "Ideas for SHTF Scenarios" or something similar... :clap: I think there also might be enough interest to have a separate topic for it...not many folks are prepared...well maybe a few here...

We could call it the "EOTWAWKI" section instead of "SHTF"

(...and I feel fine)

That was my second suggestion but looks like Rick beat us to it and added SHTF.... :clap:

Well seeing that there is already a pretty popular forum using that name, maybe we should just clean out a little corner here somewhere and name it something else....

well, there are "other" sites called that also, maybe we don't really need a tin foil thread after all.......... :whistle:
