On Hoarding/stocking up, growing up about every farm I knew of the wife canned and dried food most families had a meat house with cured and preserved hams,shoulders,side meat.Anyone with less than a year's supply of food and essentials would have been considered living hand to mouth and negligent.Big garden to eat out of during the warm months along with small livestock and poultry to be able to kill and eat year around.So wonder what has changed to the point where anyone with over a week's supply of anything is a hoarder even farm folks? We have a room full of canned food,tomato juice etc and frozen food too my wife has put up that and the bought canned things like canned fruit we could easily go over a year without buying anything major.We keep a large supply of anything on hand we constantly use like paper towels and toilet paper.Think we missed the memo for "modern living".BTW I also keep a large inventory of parts both new and used for the tractors and equipment I use on the farm.To me this virus thing is really just a rehearsal and should be a wake up call to be prepared for some really catastrophic event that is unexpected just like the virus showing up.The retail stores empty in a day or two,supply lines don't seem to have much reserve.So then what does a family do that hasn't prepared for the long term without being able to buy things?

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
