  • After Armageddon - History Channel

    Just saw this yesterday on the history channel. It really offered nothing that most of us don't already know, but it was really well done, and may be a good "tool" to bring someone around to prepping. The story follows a family of three in L.A. as a pandemic hits, and society collapses. There are a lot of "experts" interviewed throughout the film, and many many references to Katrina. Here's a clip:

    Skyowl and I bought that video. I liked that he spread clothing and stuff on the front lawn to make it appear they'd been pillaged. I'm still not sure about drinking (even after boiling) water from a car radiator.

      drinking water from a radiator is a horrible certain death proposition not only is it likely to be rusted carry tetnus, but antifreeze also has Ethylene glycol in it which is completely toxic to animals and humans. DO NOT do this ever

          That was exactly my thought, didn't see how boiling it would get rid of the antifreeze.

            diesel you are correct but in some areas of the country people do not run antifreeze in there car because it does not get below freezing .. It is still not worth the risk whatsoever

              You have no way of knowing where the vehicle has been or what's been in it.. there are also additives to raise boiling points used in hot climates

                Yea i though also that was a bad idea... going to an unoccupied home and draining the hot water heater is a better idea in my book

                    I'd rather boil and filter toilet water then anything that has been used in an engine.

                      Just saw another episode of this that was centered around a small town and the sheriff running security and control

                      very interesting stuff was on
