After reading a heart-rending post by Riversoma, I wonder if anyone here would be willing to pitch in a little money to help people in her situation. I, for one, would.

Your in the wrong generation for charity there brother Shamus, maybe you'll have better luck collecting for the Irish Relief Fund. This ship is sinking so fuck everyone else, I want a good seat on the first class life boats. Hardy har har. Now I think I'll go buy a forest and pave it over for a parking lot. Tee hee, ho ho ho.

Well, I feel better at least.

Yes, Steve, I would too. I think that we should store up more stuff to be in a position to help others that are in the same situation as R, but we just don't know them (yet).

I will ignore the 2nd poster here.

I don't have much cash right now, but I have about 3 months of food. If it will help her get to a month of preps, she is welcome to some of our 5 gallon buckets of hard winter wheat (nitrogen packed). I can spare 2 buckets and cover the postage (each bucket weights about 30 pounds). I can also cut back from having two aladdin lamps to one, so if she wants an aladdin lamp, I'll send that too. I also have two boxes of lighters (50 count each), I can spare one box. Let me know if she wants these things.

Sincerely, Stan Faryna

Hey Steve. There you are. Hanging out here huh? Still believe the U.S. will not have electricity for 9+ months? Hmmmm?

Riversoma, where do you live? If I'm not mistaken, you live somewhere in Northern California, is this correct?

Where is the post you are referring to?

It's a 10/6 posting entitled "Y2K Preparation is not about $$$$$$."

We will be helping those genuinely in need on this side of our island...as I am sure many of you will be doing for those similarly in need near your location.
