Sitrep: Mosquito Alert in Americas, Post Collapse Skills, Incandescent Light Bulbs

 Pandemics and Insect Borne Diseases

A new form of mosquito borne disease is now in the Americas.
It won't be long before it is on the USA mainland along with every other mosquito borne disease once thought eradicated here.  If you must work outside I suggest trying Bug-Tamer suits along with some type of repellent when working outside.

Scientists dispute claim that they are making viruses more virulent. 
Research is one thing but this really is Pandora"s box.  I don't trust most of what these people say after watching the global warming lies put out by scientists.

Post Collapse Skills

Here is a short list of things you need to be able to do if the grid goes down. 


Incandescent Bulbs

You know they are taking away the last of our inexpensive incandescent light bulbs due to environmental lunacy.    Notice the euphemism phase-out in this article from Wikipedia.  
Banned is a more appropriate description since it is banned and though done in phases to sound softer and less final, it is final unless we force the fools in government to turn things around.

Here is one way a company is getting around it.  They are selling rough service bulbs that last longer as well.  Sure, they still can't match the cheaper price of the old ones but isn't that what government is all about, adding more layers of cost to our lives.

The myths about the bulb ban.

A freedom perspective on the legitimacy of the bulb ban. 
We all know this is BS when the government tells us how to live, what to eat, and what light bulbs we are allowed to use.
