It's official, I LOVE THIS SITE!

I have been telling people for quite a while about all of the problems I have with Doomsday Preppers (been quite vocal about it) and have even written posts on my site about it. I am glad to find a group of people that can see through the sensationalism and see this show for what it is and understand the danger it poses not only to our chosen way of life and our reputations, but also to those uneducated that watch the show and think they are getting accurate and valuable information.

Aside from the BS that is portrayed on the show, there is a lot of factually incorrect information given that can cause harm. In just this last episode the narrator states that drinking animal blood is a good way to rehydrate yourself since it is 70% water. This is really bad advice! Blood is FOOD, not water! It takes more water to digest it than it provides you.

Anyway, I am REALLY glad I found this site. Finally a place with preppers that aren't crazy! lol

Thanks P&P, some of us, well at least I do, take personal offense that some of these people are portrayed as a representative of our community, there are some good nuggets that can be found, but for the most part we are very critical of what is being shown. What's wrong with just showing someone getting up, feeding the animals, going about a normal day, working in the garden etc. I guess it just doesn't make good tv these days

Sorry for being clueless. What am I missing.

BTW, I did like this weeks episode, "Escape from NY" Thought it was a nice change of pace for the show.
