    And if he's at ground zero/then I'll reanalyze the situation and decide on the best option from there. I keep a number of options available, and it's all if/then...situationally dependent, rather than prioritized. With his capabilities and assets, linking up with him is generally the most desirable plan in a situation, but we're not committed to anything and if it's not reasonable then that's that.

    What if he started a thread about you telling him, "If SHTF, I'm coming to your place!"

    Then I'd be curious why he left COS and moved to Wheat Ridge.

    ETA: He told me to come, not the other way around.

    Appreciate the offer, but the shotgun/mailbox thing is a concern for me.

    As for a locomotive, not yet. But give me a few minutes and I'll get it moving once the air pressure comes up.

My "bug-out" plans are limited to local natural disasters (we've had our driveway nearly taken out by floods far from the house- plans worked fine for that one)
    I would be interested in meeting others. Course, you all might be a bunch of loons that I want no part of.

    Plan A is bug in. But there always comes a limit to that plan. Plan B is somewhat hashed out (sorry, opsec on that one). Plan C is in development.

    Kazoo might be plan D, depending on the mailbox and train issues.

    By the time you enacted plan D, i doubt there would be a roadway passable from there to here. My family is going >>>>>>>>>>>>>>... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< That way. >>>^^^<<<<^^^>>>~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I say we create an underground tunnel network between all of our properties.

    EXACTLY the problem... unless you really know them, and I mean REALLY know them- like one family that is group 1, I know wayy too much about them, and would trust them to help, but his oldest child would really have to prove himself... there would be a "come to Jesus" meeting (not literally) to make him realize what is expected of him

    I would never post all of my plans online, totally agree with opsec...

    I think about these things... and I've determined the only way to really trust someone is to know them.

    There is a difference between wanting to help your fellow man, and the right way to do it- unfortunately, we live in an evil world.

    Ham test is easy peasy for anyone with some basic background in electrical engineering, physics, EM spectrum, etc.
