Wanted - Civil Defense Documents
I've collected dozens of original Civil Defense Documents (both US and Canadian) and have a few scanned in. I have all the rest to scan in as time allows, and will put every bit of what I can ONLINE for the world. The historical significance, as well as the quite interesting "National Paranoia" of the Cold War created a wondrous and vast library of documented facts, worrisome phallacies, and useful data and plans that, unfortunately, may one day be required knowledge.

Check out my WANTED list of titles I am searching for, and if you can provide info or copies to help me get online, the world will appreciate it more than you know. Check My Latest List out here.

Tis The Season
Here comes Spring, right around the corner, and with it, as always, SEVERE storms nationwide. How do you prepare for what MIGHT or MIGHT NOW come thru your neighborhood? Tornadoes, lightning, hail, high winds, flooding, and more kill hundreds nationwide each year. Know what can hurt you, and learn how to protect what is most important to you. Read One Bad Twister Story.

Your Feedback is ALWAYS appreciated. Thanks for stopping by and please, let us know how we can improve our system to help YOU be better prepared when the time comes. Leave your Feedback for us.

The Y2k Nega-Doomers Page - AKA "Those Who Deny"

By Richard A. Fleetwood - May 2001


(originally written in January 2000)

No matter how hard I, nor anyone else, work to help those less inclined around us learn to prepare for ANY potential or eminent disaster or approaching cataclysm, there will always be those POLLYANNAS who see ONE problem go by and truly believe there is not, nor was there ever, any REAL problem. They'll see a "No Disasterous Y2k" pass on by, then proceed with the name calling, finger pointing, and otherwise "smartass" remarks to let me personally, those around me, and YOU, my friends, know that we are all losers for thinking that Bad Things Might Happen.

On this page you will see examples of the kind of people I talk about. Beware, these folks come from all different areas of society, including the rather crude ones, and will use language appropriate with their education level. I apologize in advance for them, but I truly want YOU to see what comes out of the woodwork at ANY time of day or night, especially when the light is turned on in "the roach infested kitchen of life" when a disaster of ANY possibility appears near or far. Just like those poor folks that say nuclear war will never happen, and don't prepare...save your time and money. NEWS FLASH...we already had one....it ended WWII. With 30,000 nuclear weapons on the face of the planet, another nuclear war MIGHT happen, and will always be a possibility until the last weapon is destroyed. Until then, I and many others will talk about ways to SURVIVE their possible future use, or survive any other real or possible threat to the safety and welfare of OUR LOVED ONES. If you don't care enough to prepare, then why are YOU here?

I will post to this page all emails I receive from these "heathens", as my brother used to say in his youth, to let you know what kinds of folks think NOTHING bad will, or ever, happen. I will continue to post what I have receive as time goes by the next few weeks. I will post exactly what is sent me, from those who feel it neccessary to personally abuse me for my beliefs. I will post EXACTLY what they send, unabridged, so be prepared for verbiage that might assault the senses. I will put a reply below each unsolicited mailing to try to assuage their feelings of superiority, and my continued belief that ANYTHING bad is worth trying to prepare for.

Send your comments to ME at rafleet@gmail.com

Comments from readers and visitors to THIS page will be posted on my Y2k-Nega-Doomers Readers Respond page. Let's all work on the same team here, pulling in the same direction, towards the same goal. Share, Care, and Prepare....ALLWAYS.

Hey dude!

I just wanted to drop ya a line to say, "what does it feel like to be a total fucking loser?"

It's bad enough I had to listen to the media reports for the last year but it's retards like yourself that really amaze me, praying on the fear of the uniformed, feeding them bullshit up until the last minute and probably taking there money as well.

I can hardly wait to see the next update to your pre-schooler mentality web-site, though you probably don't have the balls to address all the people you have so ignorantly misinformed for the last year or so.

How fitting this site was developed by an AOL Lamer. Why don’t you find something worthwhile to post on this ridiculous domain?

Phillip J.


Reply to Email Number One

Hi Phillip J.!

Damn Glad to Meet Ya. I just wanted to say thank you for your kind, thoughtful, and oh so well thought out missive you took time from your busy spelling bee training schedule to write and email to me. The crayon letters seemed to have scanned in and OCR'ed quite nicely. In answer to your first sentence, "I don't know". But I'm sure with your apparent vast experience in that area you will be able to tell me and my many thousands of friends who read this on my website. And No, I am not retarded. My IQ seems to be much larger than my shoe size, in comparison to yours which in the few short words above seem to be based on little tiny feet.

Yes, I did pray...to God Almighty that the worry caused by the media blowing DISASTERS TO BE out of proportion would NOT cause the brain-damaged folks like yourself to attack others, loot and generally take advantage of those TRULY scared of REAL problems that could have occured, had the governments and corporations of the world NOT spent 300 billion dollars on REMEDIATION and MITIGATION of possible problems. I'll wait a few minutes for you to pitty-pat across the shag rug and get your little "Speak and Spell" Dictionary to look up those two really big words.

Back now? Good. I THINK the word you meant was PREYING. If so, I had no reason to do that, nor did I allow anyone else to use my website to do that, weeding out MANY would-be members who DID try to. But, you wouldn't understand that now would you? And on the UNIFORMED? Does this mean folks like marines, policemen, fireman and the like? By the way I AM one of the UNIFORMED. I'll let you figure that out on your own.

Now, just supposing you meant the UNINFORMED? Makes sense to me, as that is apparently what you are. You saw one or two pages somewhere, read into those pages what YOU wanted to, ASSUMED you were about to raise yourself above the rest by lowering a total and complete stranger with your foul mouth, holier-than-thou attitude, and negative accusatory tones in a really nifty 131 word declaration of your amazing lack of forethought or feeling for REAL TRUTH in a world filled with REAL LIES, and found an email link (which is amazing to me even now) to send it to me. I suppose you feel Clinton is STILL the finest president this nation has ever seen, too.

In case you hadn't noticed, YOU are part of next update of SurvivalRing. Surprise! I do have rather large ones, as compared to you, whose nether regions probably haven't dropped yet. Be patient...they will...if you're a good little lad. By the way, you kiss your MOMMA with that mouth of yours? Sheesh.

I take my little SurvivalRing project rather seriously. I have done things that have helped folks all over the world. I will continue to do so. I suspect you have no idea what it means to ASSIST other people the world over with information that is not normally easily available. I have nothing but the best intentions with my work. You obviously have nothing but the worst intentions with yours....so far...or have you actually done something to help your fellow man yet?

AOL Lamer, eh? Ouch. That Hurts. Stop. No, Really. I can't stand it. You're killing me here. Where will I go? What will I say. My life is ruined. I see the tunnel of light approaching with great speed. I am sorry I offended such an awesome and and omniscient being....I'm not worthy... I'm not worthy.

NOT. Get a life, Buck-a-roo. Go somewhere else where that little mind of yours doesn't look so puny and infantile. You use your little LEGO "I-can-use-an-ISP" kit, and go make trouble elsewhere. Obviously the word VALUE isn't in your lexicon, either.

I love your Yahoo email address and name as well. So very, very cute.

pleaseoplease_2000@yahoo.com (Yukatan biged)

Maybe your should change your 'Yukatan' to 'Yankin-on'

Lastly, I never trust ANYONE who opens a letter to a stranger with the word "DUDE" in it. Guess the rest of your grunge band screwed up at school again and got detention and left you with the keys the computer room in your mom's attic.

Get a life, my friend. Find someone else to harrangue. You're about as worrisome as a cloudy day.

Sincerely (Yes, I mean every word above)

Big Rich

the word idiot comes to mind. you and the gary north types!!!


Reply to Email Number Two

Yo, Ken.

Thank you for sharing such an enlightened and thouroughly complete response to NOTHING. What made the word idiot come to your mind? Do you often think of derogatory pronouns such as this and then email total strangers with them? Good for you! That shows great initiative my friend. And, OH-MY-GOD....I've been mentioned in the very same breath with Gary North!!! Better go get an agent and such right this very moment.

Now, in reality Ken....what did YOU expect to happen with Y2k? Abso-freakin-lutely nothing at all? Not one single technical glitch on the face of the planet? No one without power? Clean water forever? Not a single care in the world? A shiny new millenium with everyone praying to the Goddess Gaia thanking her for not letting the earth explode as was foretold by so many prophets eons ago?

Ken, Ken, Ken. My friend. Really, you are my friend. Stuff is ALWAYS going to happen. Bad stuff. Tornadoes. Hurricanes. Floods, wind, water, earthquakes, volcanism, plagues, locusts, drought, food shortages, suffering, decay, disease, pestilance, hunger, famine. Only God knows where, only God knows when, and only God knows why. Ours is not to question, but to survive. To continue the cycle of life...no matter what.

God depends on us, or should I say LET'S US, figure out for ourselves, how to make it through OUR cycles of life, learning the whole time, and sharing that education if and as we can, with others. Some folks don't make it thru their lives without tragedy...some die...many suffer. Ours is to IDENTIFY the patterns, when there are, and avoid the same end in the FUTURE. 40,000 people died recently in Venezuela...20,000 in Hurricane Mitch a couple years ago... 50,000 plus in Columbia this decade in volcanic mudslides...6,000 in Kobe, Japan in that horrible earthquake.

Could all of these people have been saved with proper preparations? No. Some of them? Very definitely. I feel any and all effort to LESSEN the effects of a natural, OR manmade, disaster is worth every single breath you or I may take. Is that bad? I don't think so. Do you?

Stop calling strangers names. Start learning how to save future lives of those around you. Or do you care?

I do. AS DO OTHERS. Join us, or get out of the way.

Richard
