Today we do another feedback show with a bit of a change up, I also include a blog post from a fellow preppers blog, a news article, a story from the great north and an amazing email about TSP’s impact in Iraq. In fact the letter from Iraq is so amazing I was only able to read part of it on the air so I posted it so you could read it in full (with a few edits) on our forum.
