CK -- Why you budding closet Granola-head....welcome to the wonderful world of Mother Earth News!

>>You and Tim are lucky. You didn't have to uproot and change your life and leave your friends. You don't have
family that thinks you're crazy, and are angry and concerned.<<

Did that 25 years ago...went through the whole range of responses back them from, " Are you guys nuts?" to "Man, you guys sure are lucky, wish we had a place like that."

I've been blessed with a wonderful wife who endured five months in a tent while I built a cabin which we lived in for seven years until I finished (mostly) the house. No mortgage. Paid as we built, built as we could pay. Country living has always been right for us. And, survivalist we are not and never have been. We've just always enjoyed gardening and canning and such.

My y2k concerns have always been for the weak and the vulnerable in our society. Why should anyone suffer any level of depravation or risk needlessly just because we lacked the foresight and will to deal effectivley with a problem in a timely manner?

****could you please elaborate on your friends comments after his meeting with Koskinen?
