SurvivalRing BLog


Hi friends,

The upcoming week is going to be interesting for me...but maybe not as interesting as the past week.

I will be offline from today until this coming friday, as I will be in Denver for a management seminar for my new career, and will be back home friday. Unfortunately, my laptop is back at the factory for minor repairs so I won't be able to take it with me. drats.....

I have lots of work in progress right now on my cd rom set, and at this point will have a set of THREE cdroms ready for all of you that are interested sometime around the first of the year. Almost 1.5 gigabytes of files, documents, software, my entire website system, and tens of thousands of pages of civil defense, NBC preparedness files, military manuals and more.....all on three itty bitty pieces of plastic 5 inches in diameter and less than a quarter inch thick when stacked together. While I have many dozens of civil defense things to scan in still, what I do have digitized will keep you up at nite for months reading all of it.

Stay tuned to the website and the email lists for the latest info on this set. I guarantee it will be worth the wait.

The BIG news is something I am very proud of. I assume MOST of you on these mailing lists have heard of a little online publication called

WorldNetDaily.com

Well, I have spent over 7 hours in the past three days talking to Elizabeth Farah, wife of Joseph Farah. Elizabeth Farah is co-founder of WorldNetDaily and serves as senior vice president of marketing.

Go to this URL to read more about her and all her articles up to now....

Elizabeth Farah


She came across my website this past week while looking for FEMA documents that are NO LONGER AVAILABLE....including nearly ALL shelter information for fallout purposes. She had to dig into my domain info to get my contact number, and called me to see if I can help her with her doc search...I can. Have a big heavy box of FEMA Docs, Swiss docs, and more going via FedEx tomorrow afternoon.

Here is her current project. WND has a magazine called WHISTLEBLOWER. Each issue is on a specific topic that the government in most ways is NOT delving into, for whatever reason. The goal of the magazine, and very successfully in past issues, is to highlite in whatever way possible, the details of whatever the failures and shortcomings are, and possible solutions to remedy the situations, for the good of the entire nation. The topic of the UPCOMING issue?

Civil Defense.

I spent almost three hours today giving her a taped interview of the entire area of civil defense....as I see it...and brought to light many details that seemed to enlighten even her in some areas. She was quite delightful to talk to, and unlike MOST of the media interviews I have given the past few years, really seemed to have quite the same goals I have had since the beginning of the projects I have brought online. What is most interesting is that Art Robinson, of the Oregon Institute of Science and Techology, the source of ALL hardcopies of NUCLEAR WAR SURVIVAL SKILLS, lives just minutes from her in Oregon, and she knows him well. Small world, huh?

The issue, when it comes out, will simply be a blockbuster. With the events that have struck this nation this year, there has absolutely, without ANY doubt, NEVER been a better time, nor reason, to create a real honest to God, VIABLE, civilian defence corps, of American citizens and volunteers, to help make, and KEEP, this nation safe. My goal since the beginning of the first small thoughts of SurvivalRing, and The Blast Shelter, was to help in any way I could, bring this to fruition. Now, it looks like it is closer than it has ever been.

I am not sure of exactly what will be in the magazine...only that a few of the civil defense docs I am sending her will be quite well highlighted, and that my websites will be in sidebars of the articles as sources of further info. Every question and thought she had on the topic gave me much to share with her, in ways that I have NEVER seen in print yet, and that really do have basis in fact and science, and of future opportunity, and I am hoping to take great advantage of this coverage...seems that WND gets MILLIONS of hits a month...and is read by some of the highest echolons of government bureacrats...so...maybe I will get a little bit further ahead with my idea of bringing back YOU and ME into the NEW Civilian Defense Corps....with the backing of our entire nation at some point. Never had a better opportunity than we do now.

How do any of us expect to make a change in the direction and end results of our nation's future, if we DON'T try to speak loud and long when we have the ears and pencils of those with much farther reach then just our neighbors, family, and local community? I have had many chances the past couple of years to share my thoughts and opinions in preparedness with media THE WORLD OVER. I have helped make contact between media and local volunteers all over this nation. I have only seen my name and website actually singled out a couple of times, but feel that that was NOT the ultimate goal I had in mind. The fact that ANYONE can live thru ANY disaster with a little foresite and planning has ALWAYS been my message. It seems to be getting thru now. For Real.

Pass this email along to every other email list, message base, bbs, or news source you can think of. Let us get as many people involved as we can in trying to get our nation back to the path of PROTECTING OURSELVES. The military, all three major branches of our nations government, and every other agency you can think of FAILED in keeping the WTC attack from happening....thousands of Americans died needlessly because there was NOT any defensive mechanism in place to STOP THE ATTACK before it happened.

I want to get the foundation in place so that it NEVER happens again. You can help me...as well as every other American alive today. Let us get it going, and let us make it happen.

Pass the word. Americans WILL take care of our own....in EVERY way that we need to.
