Wonder if they are anticipating the population increase? Power outtage = baby boom!

No Krissy, but I think there is something they might be expecting, they never get around to telling us what.. You know that when an top company finance advisor suddenly moves to Texas to become completely self-survivalist, there's something in the make-up ahead he's not telling. He projects that by next year this time, there will be one billion fewer people in the USA...now what kind of disaster could make something like that happen...astroid maybe?...at any rate he says its the un-ending of our country as we know it now. While he took to re-locate his partner bought himself an small airplane and learned to fly, to fly to "safe" areas. He recently flew to Seattle and set up shop there and left southern California in the process. Hes' trying ot talk his son in Seattle to finsish his colelge plans in Texas also.People ask him what he forseee's and he says it's to horriable to mention. I'n guesssing Planet X maybe, or more likely the astroids they think it's gravity is carrying on its outter rim maybe?...I have no idea. but it does seem that there will be upcoming times when we will be decalred under martial law perhaps and living underground. there is an great kid of "self-survivalist" movement to get away from things like elctricty and learn to live without it also if needed. Store food. Learn how to heal yourself and have things on hand to do it. Store seeds for livabilty.Some of its been around for ages as simply "smart" surival in the world in general, but it seems they are expecting something bad this way. You would think if it were incoming, they'd do better to make us able to live in spacestations.

I used to love the 70's power cuts - Mom used to get out all the oil lamps and light them all around the room - I can remember the smell and the great atmosphere now!

We are used to power cuts here - we have loads - think it has something to do with the Merry Hill zapping all the power! Seriously though it is a worry for the future.

Must be Merry hill shopping centre Steph, We've not had a power cut for years. Do they sell candles in Merry hill? lol

Krissy we,ve just had a babyboom in England, apperantly caused by the young immigrant population giving birth, Did you know our government gives every newborn £250.00 at birth and every 7 years untill they are 18, they cant spend it till then though, Their parents are supposed to invest it.
