On safari in Africa two years ago, my British white hunter looked at me as if I had just announced my intention of running for Prime Minister of Britain. “Come now, Weatherby,” he said, “surely you’re not trying to tell me that a .300 Weatherby Magnum shooting a 150-grain bullet is more powerful than my .470 with a 500-grain bullet?” This reaction was not unexpected, since it was identical with that of…

Of all the things we take for granted in our daily lives, electricity has to be one of the most common. If the Schumer hits the fan, there’s no need to step back to the 1800s and punish ourselves by living electricity free when there are some inexpensive, easy-to-use modern-day options. Too many preppers haven’t gotten past that 1800s mentality and modernized their thought, a conclusion I…
