I was real interested in most of his scenario, but as soon as he gets in to getting a fake ID made, and then renting storage space under that fake identity is a real dumbass idea, IMO. Try explaining to the cops that the reason that you're renting w/ a fake identity using an illegal ID and creating offshore bank accounts is "just in case" you're the victim of a government conspiracy... It'd make for a great movie (Conspiracy Theory w/ Mel Gibson was great!) but I'd really suggest that no one goes out creating a 2nd identity in case "the man" strikes.

I do agree w/ a lot of his ideas though, about cash, food, guns, camping gear... (the bank account isn't a BAD idea, but you might as well just use cash) - basically one of "our" bug out bags, but make sure to have plenty of cash and calling cards, which is something that Ron mentioned in his list I believe.

Good link Ted - it really made me think!

I just got ome of those county comm b.o.b's in coyote.
i likes it a bunch; have no clue what i am going to put in it at the moment.

don't forget twinkies they will last forever!!! (no really they will)

I will second, that Twinkies last forever......the last place I worked, somone left a sealed package of twinkies in one of the outdoor sheds.........after 6 months they still looked good enough to eat. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

really on the twinkies? i'm going to go get a box now!

One thing I always think about is if The POO really hit the fan, would cash really be that useful? And would the phone systems work?
