Energy fears looming, new survivalists prepare

It looks like some folks have begun to drink the kool-aid...

Convinced the planet's oil supply is dwindling and the world's economies are heading for a crash, some people around the country are moving onto homesteads, learning to live off their land, conserving fuel and, in some cases, stocking up on guns they expect to use to defend themselves and their supplies from desperate crowds of people who didn't prepare.

It makes me ask myself, though...how ready am I?
