tidbit on CD radio surplus

[Gary Pewitt]

Are you talking about the Bulgar crackers?  Those
things were terrible!!  They might have sustained
life -if- you could get anyone to eat them.
I used to work in a building with a fallout
shelter and there were tons of old civil defense
rations and medicine.  The medical supplies were
all outdated (like 20 years) and probably would
have done more harm than good.  The only useable
items were the geiger counters.  For some reason
in one of the boxes there was a quart bottle of
pure liquid nicotine.  Enough to poison thousands
of people.  Hmmm!  "On the Beach" anyone?
After the Bulgar crackers you'd probably want the
Nicotine.  Too bad there weren't any radios.  Not even
C.D. receivers.
