    I’ve had pinto beans go bad after 5 or 6 years of storage. Myalr bags with O2 absorbers all inside a 5 gallon bucket.

    I’m on board. How do we proceed? I’m in 9a South Texas. I have lots of perennial food plants I could supply starts from to swap for others I don’t have or for seed. Do we have to start a new group, or can we start a thread on an existing one?

    There is a book by Steve Solomon called “Gardening When it Counts”. It is highly recommended. He talks about having to re cross seed or it loses it’s vigor and other things like sweet and Irish potatoes dropping off as the generations keep getting replanted. He addresses how to deal with these problems. It would suck to be in a long term scenario and your seed stopped producing…

    if you follow David the Good know that he gets advice from Steve Solomon.

    This rabbi is a Messianic Jew. His insights are powerful. This is his theory as to why we are seeing all this gender silliness among other things.

    I’m reading https://www.amazon.com/Islamic-Antichrist-Joel-Richardson/dp/1935071556

    It compares the eschatology in scripture and muslim texts. Very interesting. You can get it cheap or free. Highly recommended. D

    I looked through my handloading books and Think “Modern Reloading” by Richard Lee is the one to start with. He covers theory and techniques pretty thoroughly.

    They believe that their messiah is the “Mahdi” who is an eqivalent to our anti Christ figure. They believe that what we would call the “false prophet” is actually Jesus, who instead of being the Son of the Father, is a mortal who is subserviant to the Mahdi. Really twisted.

    Really good to hear Jonathan! As you fire it more, Watch for rub/polish marks on the bolt carrier and that will tell you where to put some oil. D

    I’d love to hear more. I assume the fan is inside the structure, so warmed air is circulating? We tend to have warm Winters (South Texas), but like right now are below 20°f. By Wednesday we’ll be back in the 70s. I’m gone a lot, so need to automate as much as I can afford. Thanks for any input!
