Gentlemen, you're listening to us on... Liberty3radio.4mg.com, but we're also on one of our reflectors and pretending which reflector are we on for that fight? Cool. The tree falls in the forest and the chair is against the wall. John has a long mustache. John has a long mustache. one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines that occupy territory south central west and northeast. Well there you go. Well anyway we're on alternate technologies but before we go any farther that spike's still there. Yeah There we go rather than the queue now Where are where are they listening to us right now because you're at one of our battery backups as they say so what's happening? They are listening live on Indiana freedom talk radio dot co dot CC and You stream TV I'm up live on the video right now plus some broadcasting the audio over there so we can get all right with the crack of my screen Yep, that's what I said to Brad to Brad chimed in over on Skype and I told him how to get a hold of the stream and I apologized for his monitor. First he screamed, then he realized everything broke. It was all broken. It would never be fixed. I'm going to mute out for a while and I'm going to step away for a minute, take care of a couple things and I'll be back here in a few minutes. I'll just let you guys run with it, okay? Thank you very much, sir. And you are listening also on alternate technologies, both east and west of the Mississippi, along with southern and central Alaska. We're on the Hallmark network on the eastern seaboard, top of Maine to the bottom of Florida, bottom of Florida, across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico, headed towards Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma. Chunk of Nebraska, the third of Wyoming, our friends over there in Iowa slash highway, he's got a cross and two back towards the east again. Boy, this is a big circle, that's what we just did. All the way back to the Golden Spike Project. Oh, that's right, the whole of the Smokies and that's the Blue Ridge guys. Oh, a big old lazy L or a lazy J depending on how you want to look at it. From the Mississippi all the way up to Pennsylvania, New York, and many other places even farther north, all the way to Maine now with some of our friends there. The mission is to bridge one of the most significant land barriers even beyond the Rocky Mountains. To be quite honest, Rockies are not as much of a complicated issue as that big long chain of ridges and valleys that initially divided the coast from the old west. which was the Midwest as we call it today. Why do you think they call it the Midwest, guys? Well, anyway, it is a beautiful dark night out there now, so you can't see whether it's clear or indifferent. But, BK, what day is it today, sir? It is 24 September 2010. It is Friday. It is the evening program that makes it the last hour of the day and the week for the intelligence report, and that makes this Quartermaster's Corner. Now on that note guys, we're looking for solutions for Quartermaster for transport storage and we're gonna make sure that we get the bullets, beans, bibles, the backgammon games, you name it. If it starts with a B or for that matter A through Z Quartermaster has to deal with it. We have to first of all find it, we procure it and then we're going to try to issue it out so the troops get it when they need it. and that it's in pretty decent shape well in between A, B and C. In other words we've got to set up a program for transport and storage to make sure it gets where it needs to go. Now I know in BK we've got a number of things you're going to touch on but I want to point this out guys a lot of you have been looking at the motorized bicycle packages. Let's point this in another direction as long as you're going that far look at building up a trailer to match the bike that can be used for cargo. Kind of like a bicycle rickshaw arrangement. Think that way. Don't think small. Think full-size bicycle wheels. and think tubular frames. Start looking at building stuff, experiment. We've got a little amount there, you've got conduit you can use. You can even go PVC pipe. If we look at it as, say, a toss away. In other words, you're going to use it, it goes as far as it goes. When it's done, or when you have to discard it, you're not going to cry about it. That's how you're going to start thinking. A little trick to making the wheels if you guys have metal cutters out there, if you've got welders, if you can do whatever, you know, you have a little bit of a shock. Two front yokes slash harps from any two kind of matching bicycles are your axle frames for whatever it is you want to build in the way of a trailer. A little bit heavier in some ways, but in reality, oh wait a minute, a little bit heavier which is good because you'll be able to carry more cargo. Now you guys are going to have to be creative with the structure, but you might want to take a look at some of the things that have been done both overseas and that are marketed into the industry for baby carriers and things of that nature. They go low to the ground center of gravity, not as much clearance as we might like. We want the trailer to have as much or more clearance than the bicycle slash motorbike has that's in front of it. So, something to think about. Not very difficult. In fact, if you're trying to figure out how do I hook this thing up to the bike, again, go to the baby transporters, the little wagons made or carts made, or pull them, the munchkins along behind somebody's bike when they're going out for exercise. A lot of people use these. We have them all over. We got a bunch of them for free here at one time or another. And, you know, we've had a chance to experiment. And, yes, we do like them. They work very, very well for what they were intended to do, but we use them for cargo. Now, you can also improvise using a golf cart. The older, solid wheel, the solid wheel, and a lot of them you'll find, like I've got one outside right now, I'm reassembling, that is, it's got a V-frame, it has an adjustable body, it has an adjustable armature for, you know, in other words, an adjustable station for what normally would be the pole arm, you know, a little handle. These are mechanical, we're not talking electronic, we're talking simple pull type golf carts. A lot of places that's all they allow anyway, they won't let you use anything else. Now the newer ones are cool, but mostly for cross country infantry use. For road use, the solid tire ones are your best choice. VK, there's a bunch of new ones. that have an extra wide tire, it's a good idea. It allows the cart to float more on the grass and it doesn't leave scores or cuts in the grass. The other tires, heavier, typically also were narrower. The new ones are very, very wide. I've got a few of these. I just gave some out to some of our friends for infantry carts. Everybody goes, infantry cart? Well, guys, when we deliver this stuff, we're going to have to have ways to casually move things without your arms stretching after a half mile or a quarter mile. Another thing to consider, a lot of you are going to Knob Creek this weekend, or not for you this weekend, slap mark on the microphone, that'd probably make everybody panic, 8, 9 and 10 of October 2010, that's right, only a couple weeks away, is Knob Creek. Well consider this, if you go to your resale shops or your watch for people when they're throwing stuff along the road, you'll see these pullable golf carts. Well what if you took the base and modified it with an aluminum or a mesh steel plate, and then put a cross strap about every eight inches made out of nylon up the spine of that cart. Now you can also add a couple of rails if you want. Look at the design and be creative. What did you just make? You made yourself a cargo cart for ammunition. If you're picking stuff up at the gun show like that, at a big walkout gun show like that, what better way to be able to move stuff around? Whoa, dudes. And it still allows you to, you know, some pretty, you know, reasonable maneuverability. In the field, these make great what we would call final retail delivery systems. Now, wholesale is your heavy truck, train, at least likely that we're going to be using trains a lot, guys. But from a conventional military standpoint, ships, trains, and two-degree trucks, though they're not the best choice, to be quite honest, for wholesale delivery are the three modes. Now, the parallel or overlap is large truck was traditionally what would be considered expanded retail. 5 ton, 2 ton, 1 ton, 3 quarter ton truck or jeeps were what were considered to be high retail delivery. In that when you get it to where it needs to go, you still got to get it out to that squad, that fire team, that platoon, maybe somebody's got to move a platoon or a squad and they need to take their junk with them. That's where trailers that match the vehicles came in. The idea is that everything that would fit into the trailer would support all of the men that were in the back of the truck. Oh, that's the math formula. Now, once in the field, well, we need something to move it from, say, whatever cash point. Granted, you can use Armstrong, but why when you can find a tool or a machine that's free or cheap? Don't you have it on the shelf for when the time comes? Let me give you another hint here. BK, I've got a couple of these that are completely collapsible. They're private folding golf carts. and they fold right up into a package that's very neat. You can throw it in the back of a trailer along with a bunch of other junk. When you knead it at the other end, you open it up, you drag it down the road, shazam! Look at that, all of a sudden you've got yourself a combat kurt. What color do you want to paint it? Whatever color you feel. Whatever fits the terrain and operational area where you're located. How do you like that? So anyway, this is a solution, not just lamenting about the problem, how do I move this stuff? Well, we're going to give you some ideas. Another thing, universal trailer hitches for the ultimate retail ad. Guys, you're going to take trailers out and there might be a different trailer empty or with debris that's got to go back. Collected damaged weapons, empty shell casings, anything and everything that's going to be recycled and reprocessed has got to be sent back to the rear. You try not to move just an empty truck or just an empty vehicle or just an empty golf cart. Remember, everything is recovered that can be. Well, if you have one of these C-type, pintle combination ball hitch mounts that goes into a wreath receiver, hooks up to a standard connector so you can use a wreath receiver, this allows you to either hook up a pittle, which is what most of your military trailers have, or you can change out from one size ball hitch to another by opening up the C, and the lower part of that C assembly that holds the system together is actually a replaceable ball. You go with a standard size ball for your area of operation for the most common trailer that's out there. And guess what? If you have to trade out, each vehicle should have with holes drilled right into, say, the hanger frame on the side of the truck. Not on the outside, but on the inside of the box. Literally, you either have a piece of metal, drill a hole in it, have the things bolted into place so they don't roll around, they don't flop around, they can't get lost. Easy to find, they're out of the mud, they're out of the dirt, and pretty straightforward. The thing to do is tuck them in out of the way, left or right, just inside the back tailgate, just before the hub for the wheel well. See how that works? Do a vertical bar parallel with the lights and then drill holes through that bar stock and then screw with the same format, you know, nuttin' and lock washer you use for the fixture. And you can have two, three, or four, or five different types or sizes of ball so that just in case you run into that oddball piece of equipment, you're gonna be able to carry it away without any concern for, oops, it came off the hitch. My goodness, shazam. Anyway, ideas. We are hopefully going to be dealing with transportation. I got a new video. I pretty well have been going through that. The combination, I use VHS and we use 8mm, but I've got a lot of stuff that, you know, we use our cameras. We've got to switch it over in format. We're working on that right now. And we've got an excellent piece on transportation that's probably going to be coming up as part of the YouTube view flicks and support videos. So we'll see what we can do there. DK, I know you've got more for us, sir. Jump in there, whatever direction. I'm not about putting you on the spot. Don't forget to include one with the Turkey Trot. Well actually I did a little Turkey Trot while we were out there at the Idaho event, at the picnic as a matter of fact, because I tried to point out to people, and I actually got a chance to do this. I have done in the past. And I actually need to put the turkey trot down on video. I just haven't had a chance to do that. But one of the things that you bought this up and some new listeners are going turkey trot, what the heck is that? Is it a dance? Well, yeah, it was a dance. There's a turkey trot. There was a dance called turkey trot. But that's not what we're talking about. We're talking about going way back. About 240 years ago. We had a whole bunch of guys that were preparing to go to war against the globalists. They understood that their rights were being violated. They understood liberty was at risk. In fact, 340 going to 350 is more likely. There we go. 350 years ago. Not 350 years ago. At the end of the French and Indian Wars, We started seeing problems in the colonies. From the French and Indian wars, our troops had seen our colonial troops, militia, had been in the field extensively, watched the guys on the other side and how they operated. The Indian population had both Indian tribes that were allies and Indian tribes that were enemies. That went back and forth throughout the decades. Well, after the French Union wars were closed, technically the big battles were done. Colonial frontier battles took place constantly though and little raids would crop up here or little actions there, both sides of the fence. Both sides were busy and each had their own reason for it. But the men started to get older. These men there were participant in 1765 in the The American Revolution was going to be the war for independence. They initially perceived that 1765 was when the war was going to start. They developed special technologies. They developed military science skills, which is something that is tried to downplay because after all the militia can't be innovative, don't you know? Yeah, right, and I'm a Chinese jet pilot. Stick it. Anyway, as the men got older, they realized a regular run jog there is kind of tough on the old knees, kids. Plus, the other problem is they were trying to get range out of everybody. Now, you've got to understand too, most tradesmen, and especially farmers, we're not... Our strongest men today, to be quite honest, most of our strongest men, short of the guys that are buffed up on the steroids or whatever, I mean, and that happens, they use that, that happens. The strongest men today were like the average men of that day, despite what everybody says. Nope, they didn't have a lot of extra weight. What they had was a lean, lean, working machine. There was no international harvester. There were no John Deers. If anything was going to get done, Mural and Armstrong are what got it done. So right off the bat, you had a person who was pretty tight to begin with, pretty physically fit, despite what everybody thinks. For all the propaganda they try to throw at otherwise. But they were getting older so several of the commanders including one of them being the command commander of the actin militia forgive me I've got it again one of those days busy, but the acting commander had helped to develop a technique for running that would put you know less stress on the knees and it was called the turkey trot now this was so effective that the troops actually were able to move about twice again as fast as they normally would and it afforded them to move in unison together. Now this sounds really weird but now let's think about something. Have you ever seen a flock of turkeys, like a whole gaggle of turkeys when they're running guys? Anybody notice that they do kind of actually stay in column and work together, they actually move together? Now that's rather funny in and of itself, but the turkey trot actually, once you're up to pace and how to use it, it allowed for the troops to move much faster than a regular soldier on the march. and to maneuver quite effectively at distance because they were not only able to run or move faster but they were putting less stress on their body, burning less calories, creating less fatigue in general to the body. During the 1775, ten years later after the, you know, everybody thought the war would start in 65, didn't start until 1775, the British coming out for the Lexington and Concord engagement, once they start to retreat, start to realize that they're being swamped. I mean, they literally are being swamped by troops. There was never any complete count, though it's estimated that up to 20,000 people, maybe 27,000, and that's how wide the numbers are, participated in taking a plug at the British on the way home, back to Boston. But the British themselves have some very interesting reports. One of them, not one, but several discuss the bizarre gate or the interesting gate, and that was the only way that the British could describe it, that the colonials were using to move their troops. And in fact, it was noted that while it seemed unusual or seemed to be rather, you know, exotic, what was interesting is that these troops were able to move at high rates of speed. They were able to move into combat. They were not fatigued heavily. And in many cases, the other thing that was noted is that these men were in many cases 10, 15, 20 years older than the soldiers that they were facing that were the British regulars on the road. They would engage, break away, and could be seen in the crossing hay fields or moving down secondary lanes where the British could do nothing about them at speeds twice the speed on foot or three times the speed on foot of the infantry that were marching that they then would move ahead of, form up against, and fire on a second time, and then a third time, and then a fifth time, and then a tenth time. Then they'd lose track of them because the road grid would change and the direction would change for the march. Lo and behold, they would be seeing the same troops in another location. This also created problems with counting the combatants, especially on the militia side. One thing to think about, innovation, and that all from the Turkey Trot, which was created and developed here. The musket was held in the right hand. The utility bag was held in the other and what that did is it created counterweight on top of everything else and it eliminated the fatigue of the bounce of the weapon on the soldier. Which everything fatigues a person in the field. A lot of people have a hard time understanding it until you do some major marching. You know some major long distance walking marching. When you do that, everything that you do is repeated over and over and over again. Well, getting bumped in the leg by something once, that's inconvenient. Being bumped in the leg for 100 yards is a nuisance. Being bumped in the leg after a couple of miles can become painful. That creates fatigue. That reduces your combat ability. See how that works? You know, remember for the lack of a nail, a shoe was lost. For the lack of a shoe, a horse was lost. For the lack of a horse, a rider was lost. You know, those are up to, because of that, a war was lost. Anyway, we're going to compress it. But DK, go ahead. I know you've got more, sir. Right. So the short form is that was a high efficiency gate used in the field, and I have yet to see that on a YouTube. So you're going to have to include that one. I don't care what it does to your personal dignity. You're going to have to do it. I'm going to have to dress up appropriately. One last thing, I have to mention this. One of the people, the teacher that taught me this was Mr. Beaucher, which by the way is French for butcher. It was Mr. Butcher, he was also the French teacher by the way, and he taught us French. But he was the phys ed teacher. And amazingly enough, he was one of three people in my lifetime that knew about the turkey trot, and actually got everybody to do it. So, Mr. Butcher, wherever you are, he was a great teacher and one of those many people in history, my history, that actually kept alive another part of American heritage in his own way. I don't think the school realized what he was doing. Oops. Yeah, that's special. Go ahead, answer. Okay, back on August 27, the big topic that we discussed was a manufacturer of briquettes, that is fuel briquettes or solid fuel chunks from miscellaneous biomass. I got some feedback from the field. One of our friends built one of these presses as described. did it as a weekend project and enclosed a photograph of a righteously compressed soda can as proof of the effectiveness of the press design. So that's always happy to hear that sort of stuff. Sometimes I wonder whether there's anybody out there. But I have yet to hear from anybody producing one of the tow mixers that I think is the other half of this project. Now we are rapidly getting into autumn season, so we are running out of time to try this experiment. I would encourage anybody who did not hear that program to pull up the archives. That is theintelligencereport.co.cc. theintelligencereport.co.cc pulled down the August 27th Friday evening program and listened to that and hear what we are talking about when we describe manufacture of briquettes. I would very much like to hear of somebody pushing this project all the way through to completion before all the leaves hit the ground and go away. and test in field conditions how well that works and come up with any particular caveats or learned experience or what have you. Information that yes this works well or it works poorly because or we need to change this or that is useful before the next cycle. We may be using this for real next fall. facing fuel shortages, etc. The earlier we can run a development and test cycle on this whole technology, the better we are. So that is August 27, 2010 program. when we discussed briquettes. Also our friend who sent me this feedback said that he had done similar things in the past, though with a formula that was not 20% newspaper and 80% biomass, rather his was primarily newspaper, and he reported there were problems in storage with mold and fungus. Now I think that a minority content of newspaper is probably less vulnerable to that sort of failure mode. But that also would be worthwhile. If somebody gets some of the stuff made and stacks it in the log pile with a tarp over it or something along those lines, protected but not terribly protected storage, it would be very interesting to see how well that weathers the winter. So I suggest that that is a seasonal project which would best be executed soon. Anybody who's thinking about maybe doing this, please get a move on. Anybody who doesn't know what we're talking about, please pull down the archive from August 27. 2010 and you will know what we're talking about bear in mind that in that one I give tiny URLs to a lot of YouTube videos So it would be best to have a pencil or a good PC and reasonable internet connection so that you can pull up YouTube's to see what we're talking about Comments interestingly enough with the especially with the technology we're talking about here guys. It's not like it's rocket science right BK No, it's not. It's intended for third world audiences and with a video demonstration of what they're doing, it's pretty straightforward and clear what's going on. Like anything, there's always a learning curve, though hopefully there would be a fairly steep, quick, desirable short learning curve on this one. Okay. So I start to experiment too, guys. Remember, PVC is your friend. You can do, you can get construction site PVC, short chunks, big chunks, little chunks. and do all kinds of fabrications with it. To do at least, now consider this, when you're looking at these designs you might want to try and work it out and do a model. Well, well, plastic PVC, there you go, quick to drill, easy to cut, you know, neat, neat, neat, few pieces of wire, a couple pieces of light, you know, a couple pieces of flange metal of some kind, and you'd be amazed what you can come up with. So you can do this to model it out and if you think there's something that's a better idea, think about this. When you model something out, you can modify it in its prototype phase and then go, there, now I've got all the bugs worked out with the way I think I want to do it, then I can put it all together in whatever permanent material you want. Hell, you might even like the PVC so much you just have to alter certain things to one degree or another. The other option is again wood, which as we know is most common non-strategic material. You'll see that wood is used extensively. But one of the things to consider is go up a little bit. Go ahead and use Wulmanized. Why? It will last a little longer. It will take the organic abuse. Remember that you're going to be working with materials here that are designed to be breaking down to a degree. And if something gets left on it, you don't want to worry about stuff rotting out because things happen. You forget about something. You're in a hurry. Things get rained on. Something gets left outside. Think ahead before you build stuff. Or, better still, if you can make up a little complex area, let's put it this way. Let's make a little factory. Take a pallet, oak pallet, get yourself some scrap wood from a construction site, make up a space big enough for you to stand up in, maybe a little taller. You can put some shelving up above. You can put the production machinery, so to speak, down below. There's not much to it, guys. And you even have a little storage area for final product if you want to and you make it up just like the little shiver shanty. But you don't do anything special. Put force mint blocks underneath the pallet. Take the pallet. Use your board to make up your frame. make your work bench up out of 2x4s. You don't have to go cheap on this. Use short pieces of 2x4, short pieces of 2x6, short pieces of planking. Make a very solid, solid work surface to bolt everything to, to screw everything to. And then you can put sidewalls on it. Make it look as nice and keep it out of the weather in whatever way you wish. You could even put a little hinge door on it and shut it right out from the world so it stays clean and stays dry when you're not in use. Just something to think about. Modular. The other cool thing, make it light enough, you can actually just grab the pallet, throw it in the back of a pickup truck, take it on down the road and drop it somewhere else where you need it. Wow, so easy, it's ridiculous. And again, the idea is, kiss, keep it simple, stupid. The design's whenever possible. If you can go with two by twos, maybe you got a bunch of cut boards that people have used off-sites. If you can make it lighter, if it's going to become mobile, then do that because every ounce you shave off in one area is more material and product you can carry in combat weight or in your work weight. Always think that way. Anyway, this is a simple solution. Come on, like we said, it's not rocket science, forgive me, not rocket science, but certainly it is an advantage technology because it is so simple and there's so much stuff laying around. I was looking at this right now, where we are, BK, the bags of leaves and stuff are right out by the road, guys. You don't even have to rake this stuff up. Everybody look at the work. All that potential fuel is about to be hauled away. Yeah, and going to the landfill guys. Instead, it could be in your, it could be depo'd in 55 gallon or 50 gallon open mouth plastic barrels, you know, with a, you know, with a cap on lid. They could go in five gallon pails with a snap on lid and sealed for the time until they're used and can be stacked. Think about how cool that is. You can stack them inside a 5 gallon pail. You can put the plastic lid that came with the pail right back on it no matter what it is. You don't care. It doesn't have to be sterile. It doesn't have to be pretty. Just clean it out, wash it out. It's got old paint in it or whatever. Let it paint buckets off a construction site. I've been getting 5 gallon paint buckets up to Gagee. By the way, you still have paint in them. So the paint goes on something first. Then the paint comes out. And now I've got work buckets for whatever I want to do. Well, the lids come with those. So what you do, you can go to your paint companies, your local paint stores, some places they actually go through so much of the stuff they've got five gallon pails and wish somebody would carry them away. They've got to take up dumpster space. Well instead, wash them out, run your production, take your production, stack it inside the five gallon barrel, no five gallon pail, and put a lid on it. Then walk it outside where you want to put it out. Oh, that's right. Take another pallet. Make yourself another little building, keep it up off the ground, and then go from there. Whoa. Everything throw away and 100% reusable when the time comes. Of course, well, except for your fuel, which you're going to be using up eventually, right, BK? Yeah, that will become ash and then you can cycle that back into your soil if that's what your soil requires. I was out and about earlier today. A few weeks ago we spoke about back to school specials and exhorted everybody to exploit them heavily, both for utility purposes and with an eye towards possible homeschooling in the future. Those are long gone, of course, but I was in office max today and ran past a clearance table and on that table they were offering 48 count packs of crayons. These were Rose Art, I think they were, that's a known secondary brand of crayons at 50 cents per package. Bear in mind that's the 48 package so it's bigger than the 24th. So that is comparable to the specials that we were seeing during back to school. Anybody who missed crayons during the back to school phase has the opportunity to hit that special another time. That is almost like restarting the back to school special for a day or two. I would say it would be silly not to take two or three dollars and pick up four or six of those 48 packs. Go ahead. One of the other things too is a 5 gallon pail or one number 10 can with a lid. Guys, a utility slash office pack or should we say entertainment pack. Go to the dollar store, grab yourself a couple dollar pair of scissors, grab yourself one of those little office kits or like you said from the back to school special they have them and now they're you know we're back to school so guess what? Some of the stuff will come down as markdown yet again. Throw some of those crayon packs in there. In fact throw four or five of them in there at least. Why? Well, how many of the people you have that are going to be in your preparedness group have children? Oh, now if we have all these neat little pads, in fact I've gone so far, what I do is I, every once in a while I run to somebody who thought they really wanted to get a subscription to Puzzle Magazine, you know what I mean? Crossword puzzles, etc., etc., etc. You know how many of those they throw out at a magazine rack every week? Either way you can get tons of them for cheap, cheap, cheap or free if you know who to talk to. And what's cool is you throw those into a bottle of those five gallon pails, a handful of those different combination puzzles. Car games. If you go on to yard sale and see somebody who got like a car scrabble, you know for the little kit for playing in the car. Have you seen Stratego? Did you see Monopoly? Oh yeah, they made them that small. Checkers, Chess, Parcheesi. Yeah, all little small kits. And there's a bunch of other games. Well, also a couple decks of cards. Hmm, yeah. And then crayons and how about a whole pile of cheat, cheat, cheat, especially on sale notepads. Both single blank sheets of paper and lined paper. Might want to throw some envelopes in there too. Make it a little office and entertainment pack. Now I guarantee you can fit a whole lot of stuff into that five gallon pail. Oh, before you do it, why not put it into separate smaller Ziploc bags so that just in case there's a problem, You don't have to worry about anything being destroyed if it's compromised. Ziploc bags are your friend. Everything gets Ziploc bag, everything goes in the five gallon pail. You could even go one step farther and put a garbage bag in there, line it, put everything in the garbage bag, then zip tie that shut, seal that shut really good. Burp it, seal it, roll the top up, you got an extra garbage bag too on top of everything else. Hell, you can put some extra garbage bags in there. You might never know what you're gonna wanna pack up or seal otherwise later. See, so what you've got is a system and all the stuff that they're providing at pennies when you can get it take advantage of it. Another thing, colors your colors guys. If you're going to be doing mapping or if you have to do an improvised map or a single individual handout map for somebody, crayons will work just fine for color and help people to understand and interpret motion, location, action. They're also a little bit more subtle than colored chalk, but it is a useful means of putting a subtle mark on pavement or concrete or what have you if you need to do trail marking or mark filled drops or any of that sort of stuff in an urban environment. If you are not careful, the people who think they are a box of candy might be chewing on them. They are swaggy, they are red, they have an imagination. Don't open your mouth. Red crayon, I knew we shouldn't have given him one. We want to make sure again, use them as tools and make sure you don't give them to somebody who thinks they are something else. Okay, sorry. We're burning time fast. There is a relatively new item or at least new to me and I think relatively new on the market. This is the Tatler T-A-T-T-L-E-R reusable canning jar lids. These are not the traditional metallic lids. They have a new marketing spin. They say, oh, there's a None of the toxic plastic on the interior. I don't think that plastic coatings on the interior of the traditional metal lids is really a big deal. It is a small percentage of the interior and it is at the top in the airspace. But there are some people that think that's a cool deal. However, these Tatler lids, while expensive, are highly reusable. They consist of a plastic disc of the appropriate size and a slightly convex shape and a rubber ring used for sealing. Now the ring is a little bit disturbing because that's an obvious consumable. But feedback from users suggests that that ring if handled carefully can be reused many times They speak of sometimes using them seven to ten times meaning seven to ten canning seasons in cycles so it would appear that these things are cost effective and highly reusable if You run them enough times Now these guys cost about seven dollars per dozen for the regular and $8 per dozen for the wide mouth. So they are definitely much more expensive. for initial purchase than the one-shot metallic canning lids at a dollar and a half a dozen or so. But if you can run them seven or ten times, that may be useful. Given that these things are normally used on an annual cycle, I think that we will be at the other end of this mess before you have worn out the sealing rings. So whether you use a one-shot disposable or these reusable ones, is almost a long-term economic calculation or a preference decision. However, for your consideration, the Tatler brand reusable canning jar lids are available at shop.reusablecanninglids.com shop.reusablecanninglids.com and they have links to the home page for the company and reference retailers who carry them and so on. So one of our friends pointed that out to me. I thought I would trot that one out for everybody to take a look at. That is an option. I personally do not consider them cost effective unless you have used them several times. So it will take some time for them to pay back their initial purchase cost, little plastic discs of this sort, of course, could be sold for half that price still profitably. But when any market like this is largely monopolized, Ball pretty much has a lock on the entire market for the reusables. Then the alternatives can be priced very, very high. It's very similar to, for instance, the only alternative to a PC is incredibly overpriced. This seems to be the same sort of thing. But if anybody has interest in these guys, shop.reusablecanninglids.com will give you additional information, photographs, retailer links, et cetera. Comments? Go ahead. I know we won't get so much time. Jump in there, please. All right, from time to time I like to bring out a new retailer or one that I have found recently and there's one that I stumbled across while searching for other things and this is somewhat in the vein of the surplus traders outfit that we have spoken of in the past. This is an electronics dealer. It deals in surplus and components and random parts. It is bgmicro.com. That is bravogolfmicro.com. I was hunting for some sockets and things and found this site and found that there are a number of very interesting items on here. One of them that I would call out as a very interesting one. They're offering a D-Link G wireless routers. Now these are the things that you would want to use, these are among them that you would use if you were going to set up a local mesh networking system. A mesh network system is an arrangement of wireless routers presumably widely scattered and with directional antennas so that they can have a longer reach than is normal. and set up with some redundancy so they cover a large area. You can set up a wide area computing footprint. You can use voice over IP. You probably would not be using Skype, but there are many other kinds of software that do not make you dependent upon a corporation. to basically set up your own relay or telephone type system. You can share data, you can set up alarm or signaling systems, etc. with multiple points all linked together. And in a mesh networking system, there is some redundancy. You set up enough points that each point can talk to at least two others. If one of them goes out of service, they automatically redirect and bridge. This can be done with available technology. But one of the things you have to do is you have to have enough wireless devices. Well, they're offering a D-Link access point. I'm sorry, I said router. This is an access point. It operates at G levels, which is a good speed. It is not the fastest out there, but it's plenty fast. And the thing that is particularly interesting about these is for $12.95, they're offering you two of these brand new in the wrap, et cetera. access points. And if you purchase additional ones beyond that, the second pair they offer two more for $10. So at $5 a piece, you can purchase brand new, highly consistent, all one model D-Link access points. Now these, as G units normally do, have an external whip antenna on these little four inch guys. which means that it would be feasible to disconnect that antenna if you wished and substitute in a directional antenna. The little USB style you can put in front of a reflector but they're still tethered by a USB cable which has limited run length. These being Ethernet devices you can put a hundred yards away from a PC and then use a directional antenna to bridge up to several miles Mainly limited by line of sight rather than signal strength if you use a good directional antenna So at five dollars apiece if you're buying several of these things You can stock up these units and get a bunch of them all brand new in the wrap from this outfit BG micro.com that is bravo golf Micro.com they have many other things that are also interesting and we may call out a couple of them briefly But just for interest Let me call out a tiny URL that will show you that the Pringles can is not the only directional antenna available for hand construction and use. Here is a tiny URL that is tinyurl.com slash 8098R that is 8Oscar98Romeo One last time that is tinyurl.com slash 8 Oscar 9 8 Romeo that directs you to a site on Seattle Wireless net there are many many pages on that site of course and the particular photograph and description that it points to is a sardine can antenna. This is basically a miniature bow tie style antenna with a sardine can as the reflector. And this is a good performance directional antenna and it's very compact and very cheap and easy to make. And you could put a whole bunch of these things on a single radial. radio aerial if you wanted to all pointing in different directions and Connected to different portions of a network for instance. This is one of many designs available for directional Wi-Fi antennas I call this one out because people are familiar with the Pringles cans But they have not seen many of these other designs So if you checked out BG micro.com Picked up a bunch of these D-Link access points for $5 apiece. You cannot build a transceiver cheaper than that even if you could easily operate at 2.4 GHz. And then you go ahead and use an empty sardine can and some copper wire and a connector. Build your sardine can directional bow tie antenna and you are probably half or two-thirds of the way. to building a directional Wi-Fi link which can span considerable distances. And how you configure it from there is up to you, but there are many, many possibilities. Questions or comments? Most important here is, again, creative earth. Antenna theory, guys. Not antenna law. So there are great variables involved here. Creativity being most important. Research and experiment. The Pringles can still is nice, though. They were usually probably thinking about it, they were sitting in front of the screen, they were chewing on a potato chips and somebody thought, well what can we use for a direct... Hey, wait a minute, there you go, it's cheap, it's a throw away, it's an insult to the enemy. I suspect that the people that first came up with that were in the throws of voracious munchies. One can for the antenna, one can for me, one can for me most likely. Anyway, I know we got a few more minutes, jump in there, what else you got? Okay, I don't want to get into major topics at this point. I will mention that some of the other items on a BG Micro are quite interesting. They have two devices. One is the sensor and the other is a sensor kit that not only demonstrates how the sensor works, but serves as a very simple model for anybody who might want to cobble together his own electronics to use the sensor they have a geophone sensor. for $20. Now this is the guts of the device that people spend $100 or $150 for if packaged with an amplifier and called a seismic intrusion detection device. This will pick up footsteps or vehicle movement or what have you based on the vibrations that move through the ground. They can detect footsteps of a human size or smaller creature and depending on how you hook it up you can signal the activity a considerable distance away. BG Micro has the little cylindrical sensors for $20 each and for $30, well $37.50. They have a kit which includes one of these sensors and a small circuit board which will not only detect the sensor's activity and illuminate a bunch of LEDs useful as a demonstration, but will also show you in good detail what sort of circuitry is required in addition to the sensor to build a functioning seismic intrusion detector system. So I would suggest that anybody interested in that, pick up one of the kits. That is one sensor and one small circuit board. play with it, look at the schematic that is provided with it, see what needs to be done, and then probably just pick up a bunch of naked sensors at $20 a piece and build your own circuit board or have somebody of yours who's into that sort of thing build a circuit board that's more appropriate to your requirements. But the availability of this kit will get you bootstrapped in a hurry, get you up and running with something that works. You might want to use it directly. It does double the cost of the thing. But I would say use the kit as an instructional prototype and then go ahead and modify that design to serve your purposes and then just buy the $20 sensor in some numbers and get yourself all set up with the ability to detect movement seismically. Just like the people who spent $150 a pop on these things in Olive Grab surplus comments. Very good. No, no, we are at the top just about a T what? Most important here guys remember supply and support has got to be deep Whatever we can find redundant. No, we've got big example right here locally We've got some really big shirt sales coming up there every six months You may have something like that in the area watch for those sales. Knob Creek coming up bunch of stuff gonna be down there 8, 9, 10 October. Go to Knob Creek Range website. You can do that through our link at LibertyTreeRadio.4andG.com. Plug in, take the time, check it out. But make a point of getting down there, guys. You never know. This may, as everybody keeps saying, you know, if we have another one. They're starting to go after the guns now. We've had a series of open and closed door judiciary sessions to forget the gun. Uh oh, I hear the music. And we got Dutch coming in right behind us guys. God bless the Republic. Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We are on the march both day and night. Hurrah. Right, Quartermaster getting the job done, making sure the ammunition, weapons, equipment, and food is where it needs to be. Quartermaster makes that happen. You be part of the solution. Sound just lying about the problem. Oi! Thank you, Bizke. Alrighty folks, that was the Intelligence Report. We got Dust Jones coming up next here on Indiana Freedom Talk Radio. So y'all stay tuned while I get that fired up for you. It'll be just a second here. Hold on one minute, we'll be right back. Enjoy the song. This is Revolution by POD. That's Payable on Death. But it takes to make a solution, solution. But he's saying that I'm losing. Or is it all in my head? It takes to make a solution, to wrap up Lucian. But to realize, look alike. Stereo time to a dialyclo, five black and white.
