Over the years humanity has slowly moved away from the tried and true methods of living; to a new supermarket, energy dependence. It's so weird from the way I grew up. With family members getting together to can food for the winter. Chopping firewood, raising our own chickens. I admit it's messy but this is the only lifestyle that will survive. I feel terrible for the people in Texas today. Yet I am justified in the fact that I turned an old water heater into a wood stove and so many other things I've had the urge to do lately. Stay safe folks and find ways to become less needy on a dying infrastructure. Retarded policies are kicking liberals in the ass but their not smart enough to feel shame. Do not become a statistic.

Fireplaces are pretty, but they are inefficient. For emergency use, a wood stove is better. Ideally, you need a woodstove, a stockpile of seasoned wood, and a shallow well that will work with a hand pump. Or alternately, a creek with clean water. You can cook on the woodstove, and flush your toilet with water from the well, or creek. Keeping a vegetable garden is not a bad idea, either. Potatoes will keep you going when you have nothing else, as many people have discovered the hard way during hard times.
