Genuine question, I only ask because i'm giving it some serious thought. How many of us have a 'survival pack' hidden in the attic, ready to go?

No not a survival, one thing these preppers have in common is they have money to store food/equipment, so your normal man/women on street have not that type of finance.

another thing if the economy went belly up tomorrow forget the people who have millions in a bank account, the best people to know are the gangstas.

 
I'm really into a few shows at the moment dealing with post apocalyptic themes (Revolution & Walking Dead). It's got me thinking about prepping for a worst case scenario. I've even started thinking about best places to retreat to, and non standard places to get supplies from should the worst happen. Any of you guys got anything already in place?

Cheers, Nick

 
Yes, the best thing for me to do, is to buy camping stove, camping gas, food such as hot cans, tins, dried stuff also get powdered milk!. I would also get a decent tent, rucksack and if you have a place of safety such as a flat that's above ground level get a superser with a couple of tanks of gas for it, or just stock up and steal a boat!

easy peasy!

 
Agree with you easy peasy!I would stock up on all of the above essentials. Would stock the flat board it up then leave. Then I would aquire a boat take a fisherman with us sail on until hopefully we can return back to land.

As usual frankies bang on about the gangsters, these people live outside the boundaries of society and are already the most qualified to survive the unthinkable. Those who disagreed are in for an almighty shock if the worst comes to the worst. What's the point of prepping if someone bigger than you can just take it off you? I suppose my point is together we stand divided we fall!

 
What if we all fell and did'nt see it coming. Higher order.

We are not dominoes and each one of us has their own set of eyes. There is so much variety within our species, that we have pondered various scenarios. We are also very adaptable.
Higher order - lower order.
Higher chaos - lower chaos.
Not sure what you are referring to, but all dualities fit in a sphere.

How can you say it as fact zari. surely many of your ideas are the only theories and should be presented and such

{Ed033's Note - You're not supposed to read anything on this page as fact but as an opinion or as a theory. After all, in the past anywhere on Earth, how many alleged 'facts' have turned out to be wrong.

 
To anon
Are you referring to the statement that all dualities fit in a sphere?

I believe it is how nature was designed and has its basis in math.
A circle can be analyzed as the sum of infinitely small lines (dx) in a polygonal view.
The earth appears flat, depending on altitude and field of view but is sphere.
The same seems to hold true in dimensional progressions where the relationship between systems is limited by point of view. Microcosm - macrocosm.

Everything occupying space fits in a shape that changes according to dimension.
A point in a 1 dimensional reality.
A line in a 2 dimensional reality.
A sphere in a 3 dimensional reality.
A double vortex in a 4 dimensional reality.
. l O X

Apply its highest corresponding dimensional spin from the center of that shape and you get the next one.
