Logic is a part of survival

[QUOTE=Lythocrist;26344]Hi all, Lythocrist here. I've been reading a lot of the preparation stuff. While most of it seems relevant, some things seemed a bit 'off'? I could say.

I have also noticed that some preparations are..odd, to say the least. I have seen posts by people stockpiling sacks of rice with no thought to where to get fresh water from. At least he can use the sacks as bean bags so he's comfortable as he starves.

I think nomadic survival will be the initial outcome before survivors find each other. Stockpiling 5 years worth of food is no good if you can't transport it. Other posts I have seen have detailed how "survivors" are purchasing chemical toilets. Good luck carrying that through the countryside.

Too many people are rying to turn their homes into a Millets store. The most important piece of survival equipment is the mind, the current preparations remind me of the old No Fear slogan- "He who dies with the most toys, still dies"
