Just in time for 2012. Take a nostalgic look back at a previous "end of the world" with SURVIVING Y2K. "THOUSANDS OF PLANES WILL FALL FROM THE SKY!" "NUCLEAR MISSILES WILL LAUNCH THEMSELVES!" "THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES, AS WE KNOW IT, WILL FALL ON JANUARY 1, 2000!" WERE THE DOOMSAYERS RIGHT? The doomsayers were wrong about the effect of the "millennium computer bug" on society, but Brian W. Fairbanks was right about the bigger bugs of big business, big government, the media, and religious extremists. Now, this underground classic, originally published in 1999, is back. UNCUT! UNCENSORED! EVERY SHOCK INTACT! It's as relevant and irreverent as it was in 1999. It's not about the bug. IT'S ABOUT US. AND THEM!

Thomas Sparks, like so many others, ignored the telltale signs of world economic disaster. He is a computer expert, and was aware of the impending problems with Y2K. He finally took his head out of the sand, faced the reality of a world going mad due to economic collapse and saw a world without electrical power, fossil fuels, ultimately, without food. The doomsayers were having a heyday, ignoring their own proclaimed signs or prophecies, and the year 2000 would be the end. Thomas reviews these prophesies, dispels the doomsayers untruths and puts things into their proper perspective. Due to the chaos caused by the failure of the world’s economy, Thomas has to survive without electricity, fossil fuels, grocery stores and without contact with outsiders. He has two years to prepare and five years to survive.

It's 1999. We're counting off the days until New Year 2000, and the average small businessperson or personal computer user still doesn't know how the turning of electronic calendars everywhere from 99 to 00 is going to affect his or her own work, finances, or survival, let alone the fate of the world. Should we laugh the whole thing off as an apocalyptic conspiracy theory -- or stockpile enough food and hard cash to make it through a few weeks of worldwide chaos? The Unofficial Guide to Surviving Y2K finally puts the whole thing into perspective, explaining what it will really mean to the person. Among the questions it answers are: -- Why problems may arise in clock radios, tractors, cars, garage door openers, heating systems and conveyor belts -- not just the office or home PC -- What the potential impact may be on finances -- both personal and global -- and how it might be possible to make money from the Y2K bug -- What the experts think we'll need to survive Y2K, whether we live in the country, the suburbs, or the city -- Which medical records to have on hand in the event of disappearing data -- and whether or not pacemakers can keep pace with Y2K -- What to expect from transportation, telecommunication, sanitation, the police, and the military on the morning of January 1, 2000 -- and beyond

The word ‘prepper’ seems to have burst onto the scene within the last 10 years, and has increasingly become associated with “fringe” extremists. They have been labeled by some as “domestic terrorists.” But is prepping a new phenomenon? Or is it a manifestation of a growing collective psyche that has learned, from traumatic events throughout our history, that preparedness is critical to human survival? For new preppers who think the worst is yet to come, this book offers a walk through history that shows the worst has been here before. For those who wonder why so many people are concerned about being prepared, this book will show that when the worst has made an appearance, those who weathered it best were those who were prepared. For those already familiar with history’s worst who think, “THAT will never happen again!”—this book offers a reminder of the Wall Street adage: “Past performance is no guarantee of future results.” For those who wonder what a prepper is, this book offers a look at what they used to be—and what they are today.
