On Junk Silver or Silver Coins or Bullion Coins and Bartering

<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-865" title="dimes_sml" src="/images/uploads/2009/01/dimes_sml.jpg" alt="dimes_sml" width="220" height="147" />I'm trying to get this all figured out, it's kind of confusing! <a href="http://www.survivalblog.com/glossary.html#Junk"> Junk Silver, Silver Coins, Bullion Coins, Pre-1965 Coins</a> - it turns out they all pretty much mean the same thing! Hard-Core TEOTWAKI Preppers know that pre-1965 silver coins are made up of actual silver and have good potential barter power. That bartering capability comes from the fact that the U.S. Mint has guaranteed the amount of silver in these coins so they have a known value. Bullion Coins are generally considered the easiest way to have known values of precious metals - hence their potential barter usage. So far this is fairly common knowledge, but there is a lot more to know in order to do this properly - and I'm trying to get it all figured out.

Backing up your computer and preserving your files

The fantastic <a href="http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/">Food Storage Made Easy</a> blog has a great post out on how to set up a regular backup process for your computer. They recommend using my favorite backup company, Mozy - a Utah based company that was started by a friend of mine and was acquired about a year ago. <a href="http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/2009/01/12/mozys-biggest-fan/">Check out their post here.</a> If you don't yet have a backup plan setup, I highly recommend reading their post and following their advice!

Typically, the flu is a minor annoyance to most people but it kills a surprising number of people in this country each year, typically the very young or vary old.

Wood burning stoves as a prep.
Reviews TEOTWAWKI Survival

Wood burning stoves as a prep.

Here is Utah it is very common to have a basement, often fully finished.  My house is no exception.  Our basement is around 2,000 square feet with only two finished rooms, both bedrooms.  The previous owner of our home had ducting installed to heat the downstairs, but to do so would require another furnace which they apparently decided to set up in the closet of one of the two bedrooms.
