Right. Potassium [artificial salt] is an outstanding substitute. I have no idea what it’s shelf life is, but I bet it’s a long, long one. And like people said, people need — absolutely need — potassium. If anyone wants salt, it should be sea salt only. Mined salt is loaded with toxins not meant for regular consumption. Moderate amounts of sea salt might even LOWER blood pressure.

I’m a little skeptical of a food shortage in the US myself, but it doesn’t hurt to prepare — that’s for certain.

THANKS THANKS.

I remain convinced that the prophecies about aborted babies being eaten . . . and dying relatives helped to die a little sooner . . . for food . . . will become true.

The Bible means what it says when it says that this era of the world will be worse than ever was AND worse than ever will be again.

Not necessarily a problem with food shortage - this is primarily a problem of one type: clean, fresh water

You can have all kinds of food and still get cholera! Plus I think there’s about another half dozen relatively common bugs that can dry you up like a raisin toot sweet! IIRC, amoebic dysentery is another baddie.

E. Coli is the general culprit for Montezumas revenge, but it is a pretty benign form. But the kind that kills folks, I think we are back again to talking about diarrhea, high temps and fever like conditions, possible blood in the stool.

Nasty chit!! So it pays to have a few tricks up your sleave!

“aborted babies being eaten”

Already in China, N Korea, and Thailand. They are completely dehumanized there.

What I personally mean is that yes, we will see a rough drop in January, but I don’t think it will result in food shortages next year. Maybe I’m just optimistic or calictrant? I don’t know, FRiend. We would immediately halt biofood production and be less squeamish about dumping risking food. Even if Obama doesn’t cooperate, there would be a black market. There are a lot of ways we could ride out a market crash, especially since people are stockpiling these days.

Amen to that. Loss of power could result in people drinking risky water without even boiling it.

Sorry. Meant to ping folks to your important thread and great info.


IF

the EMP

business of totally to near totally zapping our transportation and grid occurs . . . desperate food shortages could occur within days.

All I know is plenty of convincing experts contend it’s not only likely but going to happen. Relatively very few, imho, disagree.

It’s only when.

Some claim one well placed well designed weapon could do it over the central USA. Others contend it would take several. Others say there are satellite weapons that could do it plenty well.

Then there’s the convincing story of military type training using ‘telepathy’ I think it’s demonic or fallen angel transmit/receive agents but anyway—that the military has been seeking out and training specially sensitive folks via a particular DNA feature to handle military communications when 100% of all electricity based communications are totally zapped.

Certainly folks who Love Jesus are secure in Him and His provision whether martyred, raptured, shielded, protected in safe-havens or whatever. Though I wonder what disciplines He may exact for folks who’ve been warned to prepare and haven’t.

Not sure what you’re asking.

Thailand?

I’m a bit skeptical about that one.

Where?

Ref?

NK no doubt.

Parts of China I could believe.

“Though I wonder what disciplines He may exact for folks who’ve been warned to prepare and haven’t.”

If you are correct, then everything we type is lost and forgotten. If you are incorrect, then every heckler who mocks you looks like a genius in comparison.

I don’t mean to mock or heckle because I don’t want to be guilty of encouraging people not to prepare. At the same time, I’m trying to keep things in perspective.

Sorry, I probably confused you by this:

“bio???food??? FUEL production.”

I was just correcting myself and too hasty about it. God bless you, FRiend and FRegards ....

I don’t think anything is lost or forgotten until after judgment.

I believe that everything we do, say AND THINK is recorded . . . and that

the judgment, in part, involves our

RELIVING in fast forward all our inputs/stimuli to others including our associated thoughts, feelings and actions

AND RELIVING AS THOUGH WE WERE THEM—ALL THEIR THOUGHTS FEELINGS AND ACTIONS IN RESPONSE TO OURS

TALK ABOUT AN INTENSIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCE!

Which seems to be the major objective for those headed Heaven-ward.

Otherwise, I’m not sure I understand why you say all we type would be lost. Words have impact on lives. That matters, imho.

INDEED.

Found the HD’s. Recovered the missing course guide section.

PRAISE GOD.

Saved a lot of time.

Now to revise the last 1/3rd on course requirements and get that printed and the umpteen page course guide will be done for this semester.

Probably should get some more ink, LOL.

I suppose I’m mistaken about Thailand. I didn’t see any Thai restaurants promoting it.

“Otherwise, I’m not sure I understand why you say all we type would be lost.”

I was talking on an earthly level, Friend. [Grin.]

I’m not terribly worried about God being angry at me for trying to keep things in perspective. But I would be concerned about being at either extreme.

I just think it would be unlikely. So many are devout Buddhists—no meat of any kind.

I Love the Thai people.

Burma/Myanmar and border areas . . . could believe it.
