    I'll be using septic for waste, a well for freshwater supply, and alternative power backed up by a diesel generator, so hopefully I won't have to deal with this.

    On a side note, that valve you're...

    Hmmm. A situation where you couldn't leave could turn bad. As in your example of drifting in a life raft in the middle of the ocean. What if they were going to vote on who is going to become...

    Great thread, folks.

    I wouldn't choose to lead a group. I'd rather have someone else lead; take responsibility for the lives of those in the group. The only way I'd lead is if I were asked to...
