In the interests of fostering optimism, perhaps a copy of this post should go to the End Times Forum and another to the Preppers?

Very true, few preppers feel they have good odds of surviving 6 months out at their bug out locations, and even less chance of enjoying it, while most have had decades living in society, maybe they should focus on fixing the existing society.

But then maybe they just like feeling special

Did you ever see Wicked? Your sig reminds me of a line said by the Wizard: "Where I come from, we believe in all sorts of things that aren't true...we call it history."

Thank you jayem, I'll have to watch 'Wicked' on your recommendation.

My sig until today was HISTORY IS LYING ABOUT THE PAST

I've just decided to change it to 'Every regulation is a good regulation'.
