  • Morning. I tried the subgroups, and my state. I came up fairly empty, probably my fault. I live very remotely, at the extreme end of FL that isn’t an island or a key. It takes me an hour to drive to the nearest town. So, even Miami or the outskirts is still 90 minutes away. Any suggestions?

    Why yes, I admire your enthusiasm and spunk. Just what we need for human shields and sandbags. Maybe speedbumps for tanks. But you WILL be “living off the land”! How exciting!

    In 2008, I was in a bar after work. That criminal Obama was talking. The guy next tor said “lots of words, but where are we going? Lots of words means down the shitter.”

    My grandmother . Lived through the Depression. Always cooking,.always canning. I thought I was a “big boy” when I was old enough to take the cucumbers she grew and made pickles and took them to the basement for storage. Ow the “big boy” is storing rice and beans. When I had a house, my wife thought I was “crazy” because I insisted on a deep pantry like mom and grandma.

    Who is laughing now?

    Ethylene oxide is also how fruit ripens. I’d need to do more research on this

    Homeopathy is not science. Now natural medicine is better than medical today. There is a difference between “dilution still has power” and “dilution to uselessness” (depending on the chemical).

    I suggest we all spend our energy in studying natural immunity, natural cures, herbal medicine. Even I have to say “maybe the shamans were right, and all of western medical science TODAY may be wrong.

    I put my dry milk, in their pouches, in my food saver. Three pouches per bag. Works for me.
