Survivalists Profiled on CNN

From the trainspotting variety:

Derek is compiling a survival guide on how to cope after the total collapse of society. It is, as you can imagine, a big job... What this disaster might be is anyone's guess, says Derek, but he's got his hunches.

To the pro:

For defenders of the movement, like Jim Rawles who runs a survivalist blog and lives "in a very lightly populated region west of the Rockies" this perversion by a "lunatic fringe" distorts the true message of survivalism, which is, in many ways, just about personal freedom... Their life is almost entirely self-sufficient: They keep livestock, hunt elk and the children are schooled at home. Stored away in the ranch somewhere is a three-year supply of food.

CNN meets these two survivalists. And nicely points out that they are preparing for whatever, just in case.
