Intentional Community Ideas

There is a useful article on Life After the Oil Crash dealing with preparations for unknown future events. The author, Chris Lisle, gives these 7 suggestions:

(1) develop the right attitude;

(2) stay healthy;

(3) get out of debt;

(4) decide where your going to live (build your shelter);
This is where Hawaii comes in.

(5) buy a good sleeping bag;
Not so important in Hawaii, but I would instead get good farming/gardening/building tools.

(6) have a month of food on hand;
Good, but better would be to have a year round orchard/garden/chickens that can feed you indefinitely.

(7) get good peers.
That is why I started this blog in the first place. My hope is to connect with like minded people to form a community where we can help and enjoy each other. There are always things that other people know about that you do not. My premise is: humans naturally form tribes/alliances/friendships; they have never successfully existed as wholly apart loners.
