hi everyone- I'm new to the forum, but have been into preparedness for several years. The issue I'm hoping you can help me with is this- all my research and prep tells me that my wife and I aren't going to be able to make it on our own- the whole "it takes a village" thing. The question is, how do I go about finding like minded individuals in my area without letting half the county know where to turn for supplies if things turn ugly. I've felt out family members- no takers. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Bob<br><br> I believe that you are really looking at this from a different level than the rest of this forum does.<br><br> We are mostly interested in "lost in the woods," or "small plane/boat goes down," etc. and surviving those first 24 to 72 hours till Search And Rescue (SAR) comes to pick us up and dry us off.<br><br> This means that we are looking for mostly small kits, PSK stands for Personel Survival Kit and is of a size that fits in a tabacco tin, and pretty much taking care of ourselves, though I don't think that any of us would ignore someone in need. You might want to look at some of the articles on the home page to get the flavor of this fourm. This article http://www.equipped.org/waldock698.htm give a good idea of the flavor of this forum, as does http://www.equipped.org/0601rescue.htm by, and about, forum member Kris Kavanaugh.<br><br> Good luck in your endevors.<br><br> Seth<br>

Though this forum is not focused on long-term survival / alternative civilization / reconstructive civilization, that is particularly an interest of mine. Please feel free to contact me directly at brad@cgecorp.com. I would love to discuss and share ideas.
