I have considered moonshine as a bartering tool. It can be used for fuel or consumption. I also make knives and flintknap. As many of you remember from Addie's pics, we make soap and tan hides.

As far as disaster preparedness, the tornado earlier this year took out the hospital in Webster County and the roads were blocked by debris. Their community is still being served by a FEMA portable hospital. Katrina was disastrous in MS. We were hit far worse than New Orleans. The sheriff of Forrest County hijacked military cargo trucks at gun point to get supplies for his county. These were items being sent to New Orleans. Finally, we have had major ice storms here in the past and been without power for more than a week. Travel was extremely difficult due to fallen trees, power poles, and a lack of resources to salt and gravel roads.

I'm not looking for the collapse of society and combating roving gangs. I already have the weapons to kill anything from squirrel to elephant.
