Microhydro Systems

[Mortblanc]

KE, if you are a "long time prepper" as you claim why do you not have all of these functions in place?

You don't know what trousers to wear for rough work, you don't have your systems in place, except for water and sewer which I suspect was in place when you bought the place, and I have not heard you mention having a single square foot of your 100'x100' estate under cultivation.

You have absolutely zero sense of situational awareness or concept of security.

It seems that you are asking the most elementary questions then crapping on the answers you get because they do not line up with some philosophy you have been thinking about for years but never put into action.

The people here have their food stocks, their water reserves, their power and their transportation needs already sorted. They have been sorted for decades in some cases. And here you come spouting off your "top down" luxury survival philosophy when you really don't know what survival is outside of your You-tube, internet forum phantasy.

So when this SHTF experience you dream of occurs and the groups you expect to come through eventually arrive, and they will, you go right ahead and turn on your lights, run your genset and your tractor with the PTO, and play your stereo at top volume while you grill some steaks and explain how you don't have enough to go around and they should have planned better, like you. See how that works out for you.

Some 50 kilo mom with two starving kids is going to cave in your head and move into your abode!
