Yesterday we saw a movie that had a character who lived on a piece of desert and grew her own food (Solitude, I recommend it).  Tonight we were talking about how everything in the world is becoming digital and dependent on electricity, which leaves us with one point of failure for everything.  I mentioned that, although I despise hippies, I see the value in living in a place with solar panels, a water supply, and where you can grow your own food.  Andrew said, "Then you're just a target for the leather clad bikers."  Well then, I guess we'll need some guns, too.
