I suggest that member quotes be edited for basic grammar and spelling. It's embarrassing to see unnecessary mistakes broadcasted in this manner on the home page. These quotes are supposed to be examples of our finest thinking. Such errors may distract viewers and mar the message.

Dig out the lawns,set up a greenhouse like I did.

Stock up on firewood NOW.Fill the garage,to the top.Fill half the yard if you can.You can always barter it for whatever you need.

Great ideas guys! Thanks. I'll work on it. I saw the Optima batteries at Sam's Club. Think I'll shop EBay for some small solar panels, too, and go see a couple coin dealers, too, about junk silver.

I picked up Junk silver by the rolls on Ebay. Usually for Spot minus S/H costs. Can't beat that deal. Dealers are going to roll you. They will pay you 20 dollars or more less than spot and charge you a hefty fee over spot.

There have been several threads started about food riots throughout the world. Now, the first news reports that there are rice shortages in the US starting to "pop up" at local grocers.
Check out this forum started on US food shortages.

Here's an excerpt from an old book on buying and storing goods and food as inflation protection. I thought it could be useful to beginners here, and has some thoughts for all of uswith regard to financial meltdown.

And you can make land mines out of old balloons and nitroglycerin! ...Well, actually, you have to throw them. But they're still pretty effective! _________________ I can has cheezburger?

The website is full of essays with money advice, mostly a "hard money" outlook, FWIW.
edit: Many thanks to Seahorse for the headsup by starting this thread!
That website you linked to is great. Lots of good doomer info.
BTW, I found this link to the entire book "The Alpha Strategy" _________________ Anything that happens in the future is subject to the "new rules", whatever they may be, and may not resemble anything that happened in the past.
