I bought one of these and an almost full propane tank for it for $8.00 at a yard sale.

You are under assault. There is a very present danger that is facing every American citizen who listens to me right now. Every citizen of this planet who listens to me right now. You are under attack.
…
This is an assault on you, the American people. This is an assault on your intelligence and an assault on your freedom.
…
It’s about a complete and total dismantling of a nation, a dismantling of a Constitution, and an implementation of control from on high, [from a] dominant financial authority overtaking this planet.
…
It’s not coincidence that Department of Homeland Security and the government in general is picking up all kinds of riot gear.
It’s because they know the collapse is coming.
They know the engineered collapse that has been papered over and caused 100 million people to be on the government dole, that has caused trillions of dollars of our future wealth being given to a bunch of bankers.
They know the day of reckoning is coming, and when it does they want 30,000 drones in the air, they want thousands of riot-ready police force on the street, and they want you bickering with your neighbor because you voted Romney, or you voted Obama.
Get it through your head, folks. If you dont’t understand it by now – time is running out rapidly. You need to understand. There is no change coming with Romney. There is no change coming in term two with Obama.
They dance to the tune of the same people who have not been prosecuted or brought to justice for destroying this planet’s economy.
There are people dying tonight because of what has happened to this economy on this planet.

Charcoal or briquets. Store in plastic trash can that have lids. Ten large trash cans, each carrying 100 lbs. of charcoal or briquets can last a year for the average family who cooks outside. That is 10 X 100 lbs.
Ooh...good buy!
Absolutely true -
Pr 27:12 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
We shouldn’t tempt God, and like the five wise virgins, we must be wise and prepare. Matthew 25:1-9
But for the righteous, this is *also* true -
Matthew 6
25 ¶ Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Things ought to get real interesting come november. Regardless of the outcome, expect to see some backlash by some party. Prepare to ride out the storm, regardless of which direction it comes from.
Uncle Ike, I bought a fixture at Harbor Freight that allows refilling the small Coleman propane tanks from a 20 pounder for about $1.00 each refill. I ‘capture’ all the empty small ones I see now.
Thanks - I’ll check that out next time I go to the city.. I’ve accumulated a dozen of the small tanks over the years, but the idea of using “throw-aways” in a SHTF situation has always kind-of galled me... ;)
I haven’t had this suspicion confirmed as yet, but I think (suspect!) we’re all gonna die.
If “IT” happens the way the doomsayers say. then you wont have to pay any bills. You’ll have to survive.
I bought a Mr. Heater Cooker and a propane tank at a garage sale this summer for $15 and after I brought it home I realized it was the old style tank that isn’t adaptable anymore. I think the other guy got the better end of the deal.
The game is so rigged and now even the ‘house’ is starting to lose.
Exactly!!
People don’t understand or realize that!
All of these promises and contracts are based on interest.
It WAS NOT ENOUGH for the money grubbers to have simple contracts, so they started betting on commodity packages, derivatives, etc.
Now, with hedge funds, they are basically betting on who is gonna go broke first!
It’s gone beyond the ability of a linear or annual percentage increase in the money supply to fix. You can’t feed it fast enough.
It’s truly gotten ridiculous.
If two people walked up to you to buy your house, and one had $150,000 cash, and the other had some equity bond with a face value of $50,000,000,000 which would you take?
Think long and hard. There’s a possibility, maybe even a good chance the bond is in fact worthless.
That amounts to a collapse right there. It just hasn’t trickled down to us peons yet.
I have the adapter!!

“I think we all see this coming. November will tell it all. People think it can’t happen here, but if America falls, the rest of the world follows.”
A thousand year dark age followed the collapse of the Roman Empire. We may be facing another.
Here are 3 examples, of “leaders” who ran amuck and caused the deaths of millions...
Quote:
Mao:
Diametrically cited as both a great “criminal” and “force for good”, Mao, referred to as both “monster” and “genius”, remains a controversial figure, with a contentious legacy that is subject to continuing revision and fierce debate.
Nationwide political campaigns led by Mao, such as the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, are often considered catastrophic failures; while his rule is believed to have caused the deaths of 40 to 70 million people.[4][5]
Severe starvation during the Great Chinese Famine, mass suicide as a result of the Three-anti/five-anti campaigns, and political persecution during both the Anti-Rightist Movement and struggle sessions all resulted from these programs.
His campaigns are further blamed for damaging the historical culture and society of China, as relics and religious sites were destroyed in an effort to rapidly modernize the consciousness of the nation.
Stalin:
Main article: Soviet famine of 1932–1933
Famine in USSR, 1933. Areas of most disastrous famine marked with black.
Famine affected other parts of the USSR. The death toll from famine in the Soviet Union at this time is estimated at between 5 and 10 million people.[64]
The worst crop failure of late tsarist Russia, in 1892, had caused 375,000 to 400,000 deaths.[65] Most modern scholars agree that the famine was caused by the policies of the government of the Soviet Union under Stalin, rather than by natural reasons.[66]
According to Alan Bullock, “the total Soviet grain crop was no worse than that of 1931 ... it was not a crop failure but the excessive demands of the state, ruthlessly enforced, that cost the lives of as many as five million Ukrainian peasants.” Stalin refused to release large grain reserves that could have alleviated the famine, while continuing to export grain; he was convinced that the Ukrainian peasants had hidden grain away and strictly enforced draconian new collective-farm theft laws in response.[67][68]
Other historians hold it was largely the insufficient harvests of 1931 and 1932 caused by a variety of natural disasters that resulted in famine, with the successful harvest of 1933 ending the famine.[69]
Soviet and other historians have argued that the rapid collectivization of agriculture was necessary in order to achieve an equally rapid industrialization of the Soviet Union and ultimately win World War II. Alec Nove claims that the Soviet Union industrialized in spite of, rather than because of, its collectivized agriculture.[citation needed]
Hitler:
In particular, over one million Jewish children were killed in the Holocaust, as were approximately two million Jewish women and three million Jewish men.[6][7]
Some scholars maintain that the definition of the Holocaust should also include the Nazis’ genocide of millions of people in other groups, including Romani, leftists, Soviet prisoners of war, Polish and Soviet civilians, homosexuals, people with disabilities, Jehovah’s Witnesses and other political and religious opponents, which occurred regardless of whether they were of German or non-German ethnic origin.[8] This was the most common definition from the end of WWII to the 1960s.[8] Using this definition, the total number of Holocaust victims is between 11 million and 17 million people.[9]
Unquote:
The only thing I might worry about is the seals on the small tanks, I assume they are rubber or neoprene or something like that and don’t have an infinite life span. Because of that, the small tanks I refill I keep outside in my shed.
Take a look at this I posted:
My Ammo Can Rocket Stove
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2914240/posts
Hey Kart, loved that rocket stove you built out of an ammo can. My fiancee’ had built about 5-6 rocket stoves out of #10 cans and a couple of regular sized cans and they work great but when I showed him yours he bought two ammo cans and is upgrading our stoves.
Could be a good barter trade. I remember Selco had talking about having a set-up for refilling lighters that he used for barter business.
Thanks professional compliments are always appreciated. ;-)
