Peg, there is information on surviving nuclear war (and many other things) on the following websites:(posted 9625 days ago)Alpha Survival Group www.easley.net/warlord
Rocky Mtn. Survival Group www.artrans.com/rsmg
Don't let the names scare you off. They both have good, solid information, particularly the RMSG site. They have many links, including links to things that are of a homesteading nature as well as war related topics.
And to those who can't bear the thought of preparing for nuclear war, or any other war, remember the parable of the wise and foolish virgins.
