I mentioned that same speculation yesterday, about the "darkness".
What would be worth more would be dry goods and food/water, and especially items like alcohol and cigs for bartering...and of course...AMMO. Guns don't work w/out it and it will probably be worth its weight in gold if everything falls apart. Most people with guns might have one box..LOL...even the bad guys, unless they steal it. Look at it this way. What good is food and water if you can't stay alive because of the gankstas and scum.
The weather in this area is going to be very mild this week-end, I planned a nice week-end at the beach, with my two children. My husband is in Myrtle Beach for a business/golf week-end with business partners and my father and brothers. He expressed his thoughts that he didn't really want to go...yesterday morning as he was leaving.
32 Live Grenades Found in Clamshells

Authorities have destroyed 32 grenades that a Bridgeville man discovered mixed in with loads of clamshells he was spreading on his property.
The man, whose name was not released, delivered the grenades to Troop 5 in Bridgeville on Tuesday, state police spokesman Cpl. Jeff Oldham said. The grenades, which were mostly World War II vintage, were in the shells purchased from a Maryland business and delivered to the man in November, Oldham said. He did not have the name or location of the business. The man apparently found a grenade or two every time he spread the shells and kept adding to the collection until he finished the job.
"These were live grenades that could have gone off," Oldham said. "The man put them in a pot and left them there." The grenades were both "pineapple" hand grenades and rifle grenades.
Members of the state police Explosive Ordnance Disposal team verified the grenades were military ordnance, Oldham said. Dover Air Force Base was notified and a unit from the base took the grenades. The ordnance was then transported to Dover Air Force Base, where they were destroyed, Oldham said.
"Apparently, the grenades are from off the coast in the Atlantic Ocean," he said. "The military used to use the ocean for testing, and somehow the grenades were disposed of there. These clamshells were dug up, processed, and the hand grenades got mixed in." Oldham said it is not unusual for ordnance to turn up in coastal areas.
State police said anyone who finds ordnance, explosives or a suspicious package should leave it alone and call 911 immediately. Do not handle or transport the item, police said.
