Federal Reserve Bank 'Hub' << These tests have gone extremely well. This is significant because the Federal Reserve Banks operate the hub of the nation's payments system, providing depository institutions with essential services in cash, checks, and electronic payments. >> This hub analogy really fits ... Ever see how wobbly a wheel is with only a couple of the spokes out of alignment or missing? As for going to lakes and water holes ... The skeletons you find there must mean something. < vbg > John PS - With 6" of ice on the lakes and water holes up here, I am surprised he didn't suggest ice fishing as well.

Ken->>Ron's absurd advice for humans to go to lakes or watering holes to find water<< You are not going to convert anyone so give up.... besides you come on too strong and scare people off who may otherwise lurk and slowly come around. Simply prepare as you want and insulate yourself from the herd best you can. I used to butt my head against the wall but the fact is it is too tough for many people too accept. They are the ones gambling- we have nothing to lose if we are wrong-- pity the families of men to prideful to prepare as they have alot to lose. Jeff
