It would increase the chance to continue free communication and increase chances of survival.
AGREED
THANK you for bring this up.
This issue has been seriously rolling around in my awareness for six months. I am aware that there will be a 'cut off' soon. It is a logical control plan. At Ifirst I considered it as a local problem - no electricity to connect and so looked into small solar panels, that with an inverter / converter ?? could charge a deep cell battery - limited- but enough to connect a laptop or notebook.

Then realized- if all our Nets were down then what to do. So looked into ham radio info etc.... It's just not my thing to figure this out.
I'm left brain thinker- I would need the expertise of others- I then could follow clear right brain instructions.
Meanwhile I am exploring telepathy. (If anyone else is interested- let me know. I have no idea if there are established protocals- but I'm willing to try anything)
Blessings
