1. Given the media intensity given to the Covid 19 (otherwise known as Corona or Wuhan) virus, there seems no reason to have posts on that very specific subject in several forums Accordingly, all of those posts will be moved to "Headlines". All new items on that subject should be posted there as well. This notice will expire on 30 April, or be extended if needed. Thanks, folks.
  2. ". . . I really come here to learn and exchange ideas. I have found that if I am a little bluesy, I can come here and in no time feel uplifted. Thank you all for that. I am still going over old posts and trying to stay on top of new ones. lol You all have been a blessing for me. . . ."

  3. ". . . I have to say, you guys are the best. Everyone here is friendly and non-judgemental. You all seem to understand that every prepper has a different circumstance and is working with a different set of resources. You all are truly decent people here, I'm just glad to be a monkey . . ."

  4. ". . . I'm very new here and new to prepping. I started out searching for info on another forum and found that most of the posts there were basically "my opinion is better than your opinion" with a pinch of useless name-calling. It was hard to wade through the vitriol to get to the good posts. I just don't have the time . . ."
