Please, please recommend more in that genre. My favorite was Lucifer’s Hammer. The sequels to Patriots were awful.

Dirk Patton’s V Plague series is great, particularly if you are a fan of military hero, dystopian fiction. I am presently on Book 8, so that should tell you something. :)

What happened to him other than going mental over losing WILSON!!!!!! He put off going to the dentist, and while he was marooned on the island the tooth cracked, got infected, and caused him tremendous pain.
It was a Hollywood movie, but they had survival instructors as technical consultants. And they say that health problems put off until a survival situation arises can become life threatening.
However, print out skills and how tos so you'll have them when your computer doesn't work.

That’s a very nice machete but its also good to have some cheap ones from the flea market. I have two that have lasted for years. Plastic handles.
I have used my machetes for yard work in the last month

But K Bar makes great stuff. Of course they do. But I like having average stuff too and maybe a few .....for backup. I see Harbor Freight has a serrated machete. I will look for it next time I am in the store.....hope its not just a mail order item.

To: Tilted Irish Kilt
They were high altitude and over a city. Only the area directly under the EMP was affected, not the whole country.

That first book FREAKED me right out. I was a happier person before I read that. Now I am scared to read the next one.
