This does seem the best place to introduce yourself so here I am.
I just joined the forum after reading through it for about a week and I am impressed with the knowledge and attitudes of the people here.

My background is pretty straightforward: camping,hiking,hunting, no military,long-standing interest in survival topics and self-sufficiency in uncertain times. Incident this past winter has pushed this last topic into high gear and I am now very actively trying to put together a comprehensive 'bunker in place' program. I am not a survivalist, just want to give things a chance to settle down and let me work through my wine cellar, I look forward to learning more from the people here and hopefully am able to contribute as best I can. Glad to be here.

Welcome. You'll fit right in. Especially with a bug-in wine cellar.

Hi there, glad you decided to join, especially after only a week! I lurked here for about 3+ years, though I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better non "survivalist" forum on the Internet.
