[quote:Soledad:MV85MTExMzVfMTQxMDUxODdfNENFQ0E5QjA=] [quote:SouthernLight] From what I have read, there could be winds reaching 200+ mph, lightening storms of biblical proportions and sudden temperature / climate changes. Does anyone have links to some fairly concise information relating to these possible effects? All I've found so far have been pretty fringe sort of sources. [/quote] What do you consider "fringe"? By definition, at the present time the entire topic of PX is considered fringe, so anyone who is taking it seriously is also considered fringe. The most complete info on PX and how to survive it is probably at www.zetatalk.com, but they are also probably the single most maligned website/group at GLP. My general advice is: (1) Stock enough food and basic gear for the first several months, a period during which things will be in total chaos. The whole package shouldn't cost more than the price of the average person's car insurance bill for a year. (2) Keep working on those wilderness living skills, particularly in relation to food: learn all the edible plants in your area, learn how to hunt and trap (trapping is more efficient than hunting because you don't have to be there to do it; also, deer will get hunted out quickly after a pole shift, but small game like rabbits will not). (3) Find areas away from population centers with water and some measure of isolation. This could be one's own rural land or it might be on, for example, national forest land. Get maps and spend time in these areas in advance scoping them out for access, water, hunting/gathering prospects, etc. Soledad [/quote]

... and bypass all the controversy surrounding the topic.
I'd like some input on protective measures average people / communities can take as the effects (earth changes) intensify. I hate to think of myself as a 'useless eater', but let's face it, I don't have any shining qualifications that will warrant an invitation to the nearest super bunker.
What I Do have is rare enough... a surviver's attitude and experience in wilderness living. So, considering this (hypothetical) situation realistically, what steps can those of us awake, but without black-ops or bail-out funds, do to have a chance of survival? Are there any ideas or resources available that could help groups or small communities know how to prepare... what effects are most likely (any for specific areas beyond coastal or fault zones?), how to quickly construct safe, low dollar sheltering, foods to culture or grow in extreme or 'on the move' situations and whatever else that might apply when trying to save as many as possible under 'worst case' conditions.
I know some are considering this topic... Where do we start?
