So, out of curiosity, what do you think are the 3-5 most useful skills you have (in terms of being prepared to cope with power loss, national emergency, Great Depression II, whatever); and what are the 3-5 skills that you would most like to acquire to be even better prepared?
For me, I'd say: HAVE: adequate level of skill in cooking, gardening, sewing; reasonable experience building and repairing mostly-wooden stuff using hand tools; and I think a fair flair for finding ways to make most anything out of most anything else, within reason.
COULD USE: knowledge (I have none) of how to repair/alter small electric motors; knowledge of how to make/modify small electric generating systems (again, I lack Clue One); much better skills/fitness for felling and sawing/chopping up trees; and better skills at gettin' people to like me enough to not be the first person voted off the island so to speak <g>
How 'bout you?
