[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 343231, member: 1485"] I don't think our food is in jeopardy. Farmers like to talk about "feeding the world" yet a majority of the row crops don't wind up in folks' stomachs. Remember Victory Gardens? When Recession time comes (and it will, sooner probably than later the way the stock market is tanking and inflation is going bonkers) methinks many folks are going to turn inwards for their foodstuff. We're already discussing it here. I'm going to experiment with aquaponics and see if I can make a sustainable ecosystem with a few goldfish, a pump, and some grow lights. That, and there will be a very concerted effort to fill the game freezer this year. I'd say even an "urgency." We have enough friends and coworkers with backyard chickens that our egg needs are well met, even with the fowl flu. I dunno -- call me indifferent, but I say let come what may. Maybe a little upheaval is just what the Dr. ordered to set things a bit straighter. [/QUOTE]
