(Concrete?) The Romans figured this out in their day, yet somehow, the secret has been forever lost. Even our beloved portland cement of the modern era isn't the same as their concrete. <br /><br />Eric<br />IIIAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469109905542911409.post-4354224499819538602010-01-11T00:48:21.080+00:002010-01-11T00:48:21.080+00:00Books will last a while though, especially when ma...Books will last a while though, especially when made right.<br /><br />Make sure you teach your kids to read, as well as raise chickens. As society recovers, the knowledge in those books and the ability to use it will be worth a lot of money.<br /><br />A few years ago I was working with screw machines made for and before WWII. Plenty of stuff properly packed will be able to wait until we're back at the point were we'll need it.Lorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843550881990596267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469109905542911409.post-81439369664934666432010-01-11T00:40:05.712+00:002010-01-11T00:40:05.712+00:00The vast majority of the old Roman aquaducts, buil...The vast majority of the old Roman aquaducts, buildings, and other stone constructs were indeed torn apart to build other things, including dirt floored houses.<br /><br />This is happening already in places like Detroit. Appliances, copper wiring, and copper water lines are stripped out of home which people don't know how to maintain.

Simply start to mine coal or drill for oil offshore of North America, build a nuclear reactor of modern design, regenerate from injuries using stem cells, or import and hire foreigners. The Luddites who will show up to stop you by force, because they are certain you are offending Gaia or God, are a big part of the problem. You have more enemies than you realized. We already know how to feed, clothe, and house ourselves; we don't need to do anything "different" in the short term. Importing oil from the Middle East and goods from China works adequately for the moment. Anyone who would forcibly prevent you is part of the problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469109905542911409.post-67959754691557456542010-01-10T23:53:32.798+00:002010-01-10T23:53:32.798+00:00Baugh is sharp, has thought through what's com...Baugh is sharp, has thought through what's coming and why, and has reasonable answers that may not please everyone.
