I'm still looking for a couple of survuval knives and need suggestions, I've been thing about a Chris Reeves "Pacific"  What do you think? anyone want to guide me in a different direction? I just need some help here and need at least a couple of good knives to keep in on the pack and one in the togo bag.

Is there anyone one on here thats read Dick Morris's new book" Here Come The Black Helicopters"? something about Agenda 21 an the UN's plan for us.

The only country I have heard anything good about recently is Chile.  Costa Rica is a beautiful country, but ex-pats can't work there.  You can open and own a company, but you still can't work there even in your own company.  You must hire locals to do the work.

I can't imagine what other country would be better.

That is interesting Hog.  All the work to make what some of us would call a self sufficient life style, sell it all and move to another country.  Sounds like the kind of place you work to keep for generations

For those who wish to have a copy of my thoughts on food storage and prepping send and email to james@thedawsprojects.com; I forgot to include it yesterday.  I don't collect emails and I won't sent any unwanted mail or use your address in any commercial manner.

I will be happy to share with anyone who wishes to read what I have written.  I've written several papers; they are all short and easy to read.  I'm not writting a college text so I try to keep it as condensed and to the point as I can.

You are right Steve, prepping knows no geographical or locational  boundries.

Comment by James Cole on September 24, 2012 at 9:33

I'm a prepper and a survivalist and I sell prepper supplies.  Unfortunatly I don't live on a farm like Hog, though I use to.   Preppers lay in some of the following supplies, not in any particular order, water, food, guns, knives, books and articles on survival, tools, trade goods, meds/first aid, heat and cooking, and anything else they think may be needed.   I've written a short paper on food storage and use, and will make it available to anyone who would like to read it.  There is no advertising, just the address of my web site.

There are "Survivalists" and there are "Preppers"..."Survivalists" usually get this bad rep, usually (but not always) incorrectly related to "Militia" groups where preppers just get themselves ready for upcoming emergencies like floods, ice storms but not necessarily like the end of the world and being infested by zombies.

The English version if often called Bushcraft like what Ray Mears TV shows are all about and during the 1960s and 1970s we were called "Back to the Landers" with The Mother Earth News being our official rag.

There are thousands of sites devoted to survival living and preparation--everything from dealers selling you freeze dried rations and MREs to how to survive in the woods eating plants and everything in between including the Red Cross.

Some print publications:

Also lots of information can be garnered from places dealing with primitive or traditional archery, blackpowder shooting & mountain man sites as well as Paleo sites like for flint knapping to hunting with an atlatl.

Hey thanks Pat.  I may see if Marc has a way for us to do that after the live broadcast/chat.
