I took a look-see...
anyone have comments?

An amazing mix of truth, half-truth, lies,
propaganda, religion,
politics,
wisdom, contradiction and nonsense. You could call
it sales-speak.

For a "survivalist" the selection is odd. Too many
are summer annuals,
you are going to get very hungry in the cooler
months and there ought
to
be more staples and things that will keep. Why on
earth do you want
cucumber and two kinds of lettuce (low food value)
but there is no
pumpkin
or potato (high food value and keep outside the
fridge)?

It is a lot of money to spend on seeds unless you
know and trust the
source. The average gardener would take years to
use all these. I
thought
they were pushing these seeds being heirloom which
implies true
breeding,
seed saving etc, why then do you need a supply for
five years, assuming
they will last that long?

If it were me I would save my $164, spend much less
on a sensible
quantities of seeds that are more suitable and rely
on Worldnet Daily
for
entertainment while waiting for the rapture.


Indeed. And who needs 5 years worth of seeds when
the world ends in
2012?

Well, in keeping with this is a cheery crowd,

Well, do I have an offer you fellows.

For those that get taken up in the Rapture. I Dan the
atheist will take
very good care of any animals that get left behind that
belong to you.
Just mail me a check for $2,000 US dollars and your home
address
(optional) for this great offer of Pet Rapture Insurance


As for the 2012 theory no one is left behind to take
advantage of

One side question:
Can't one freeze seeds that will last as long as the
power holds up?

If so I will stock up on the seeds and ammo. Personal
insurance when all
the currencies in the world collapse and gas will not be
available.

Like the video -
Just me and the dog in my bunker with world falling apart
around me


Thanks Dan, I'll sleep better just knowing your there (and
I'm here ;O)

I grew up at a time when the only food we had on the table
was that which we planted, weeded and harvested ourselves.
Dad had beef cattle so meat was a plenty.

The seeds scare is just that. What town doesn't offer
little plots to their citizens so that they "can grow their
own food and have enough to give to their neighbors"? But
that's mainly for people who finally figured it out it aint
a bad thing to get dirty hands now and then.

My frig this winter will be full of berries for just about
every pie you can think of except lemon. And seeds? The
only kind I buy are in bulk and I can mixed them with
something else and I get a nice crunchy snack.

Militia's in the past were protecting the right to bear
arms; I won't disagree with that. But now we must sow to
reap? I'm still reaping from that which was stolen from me;
and yes, that's a sentence that will not make sense unless
you wear size 8.5 and bought them on sale.

Just when I thought I'd heard of everything, survivalist
seeds makes its entrance.

And it's Dec 21, 2012 that the Maya's calender stops.
Doesn't say the world will end; just that is as far as their
calender goes.
