I wish to put this forth to my fellow ants for reviews and thoughts.
In our normal everyday life we prepare for the unexpected in hopes of continuing on with some degree normalcy. We as a whole are learning many techniques to help us and others. I've been pondering lately of all the people who could possibly be of help even if they don't have our skills.
As the title says ; These people may not be able to do many of the things we do but have vast knowledge in many areas we don't and could quite well be very valuable in areas such as total recall on many subjects. Engineering ; gardening ; farming ; weapon building ; repair ; power generation and many many more subjects.
It's my belief that even if they can't handle weapons and fight like us that they have a valuable spot in the clan if managed right. To me it is imperative to have brains along side the brawn to get the job done.
I have a very close friend who's brother in law is quite possibly a functioning Savant. This man does calc. in his head and other math. styles. Draws up plans for various projects and put them down in fine detail to each pieces size and so on without cracking a book or sweat doing it. But as for being a warrior not so much. He's working on 5 different projects at once and keeps everything in his head. All these are for after SHTF though he'll use them now.
I guess my point is ; Should we keep our eyes and ears open for these folks and work them in where possible? I personally believe we should if it's workable.
What say you.
