Low Information Diet

RE: Low Information Diet
Before the internet, before TV, before radio and the telephone, before the telegraph, before atomic power, before electricity, before steam power or water wheels or windmills, before all the modern states, before ancient Rome and Greece, before Egypt and Mesopotamia,

There was the PUB!

What makes you think SHTF is going to shut them down?

The PUB is where all the plans are hatching and if you are not there the future will be created without you.

Do you really want that?

the best thing any survivalist can do is not turn off all the modern conveniences, it is to get down to the pub and get to know the community and let them know you.

One most definitely does not want to look up and see the local mob coming with flaming brands and pitchforks to evict the "Weirdo over the Hill" from his hovel because you never stopped in to have a pint.

I spend 4-6 days away from the conveniences about once each month. 10-14 days away from them 4-5 times a year. I did 18 out of 30 days away from modern life in June, have done 4 days in July and have 8 scheduled in August.

That includes away from the running water and flush toilets too.

Fact is, if I turned off all the power and went out into the garden and built a fire, at around dark I would have 6-8 people sitting and standing around talking and passing the time.
