    Nope not at all. It was just a term of habit after searching and talking about a house with a walk out basement for 8 months. I would use any basement that stays dry to store stuff.

    Speaking of which, @Catullus I'm about ready for a case of TP if you are still doing business.

    Soooo... what about the news... we used to use the sears catalog, we either throw away a lot of news paper, or recycle it.

    Should we be saving it?

    Save it just in case Cat doesn't come thru. Cat's product is better than Sears pages and it's septic tank friendly.

    I'm going to give y'all a tip.

    This is a tip for guys like me who have a SHTF solution that includes running water. I have one. I also have an excess of water storage. You desert dwellers can skip to the next post. I have cisterns. I collect rainwater. I've got more water than I can use.

    I've got a bathroom. It has a shower, a sink, and a flush toilet. Granted, I still require AC to run the shallow well pump, but I can get off the grid anytime I want.

    If I found myself at TEOTWAWKI and my source of toilet paper had dried up, I would just hook a hose off the sink and attach a shower head off of that. When I was done, I'd just shoot a little warm water up there and get it clean.

    You can trace a lot of troubles with the anus to complication from toilet paper in a SHTF scenario, you'll want to keep problems down there to a minimum.

    Alternatives....

    Grape Leaves
    Grass
    Lambs Ear
    Hollyhocks
    Mulberry leaves
    Wash Cloths, which could be moistened with a spray bottle, and a diaper pail
    A portable bidet (Peri Bottle) and something to dry off with
    Pages from a phone book

    and let's not forget the old corncob bucket in the out house....
