The Circle Approach to surviving

[Hoosier]

Ok, I didn't mean to get distracted on the method that the data is being kept in. Ideally I think having a handy digital copy for if it survives, and paper in binder is a great solution.

The trick is, the data. I think a Wiki is the ideal solution, since then the data can constantly be added too. I'd like to be able to drill down in a category as I need more detail.

For example, say there's a section on cars, it will have a section on preparation before a problem, a section for dealing with cars in various disasters, etc. For example, if the EMP knocks out new cars systems, will that old Chevy the neighbor down the street has still run? How do you get gas from one gas tank to another? How can you tell if a batter in a car works with no tools and nothing no keys?

Oh, I'm sure a lot of this is covered in a great many books; I just don't have the time to really hunker down and read a bunch of books to find the best tips. I think a collective effort could (eventually) produce a good open/free work.

Don't know if it has been psoted, but anyone watch "Life afte People" I think on Nat Geo or one of them. It's a series that shows how the populace dies off after the big whatever. Interesting...
