In the last couple of days most Australian newspapers have run this story<\/a>:<\/p>\n

A 2012 doomsday group is charging $5000 for admission to a survival bunker in the northern NSW hills.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
Massive earthquakes, shifts in the Earth’s poles and devastating solar flares will be among events faced by the global community this year, according to the group, which describes itself as a “survival community”.<\/p>\n
Group organiser, NSW refrigeration mechanic Simon Young, said the entry fee went towards concrete and other materials to construct the bunker, believed to be in mountains near Tenterfield.<\/p>\n
The group points to Egyptian texts, Bible passages and a frozen mammoth as evidence the world will undergo massive physical change around December 21.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The first thing that stood out for me is that Tenterfield<\/a> is a great location – according to my research the New England Tablelands region of NSW is the best survival area in the world<\/em>. And when I visited their website (www.2012australia.com.au<\/a>), it was clear that they’d used some of my research regarding what might happen in 2o12.<\/p>\n
So I asked Simon for some more info. He replied:<\/p>\n
\n
the bunker construction has begun, with the hole dug and the concrete base poured<\/li>\n
they have shipping containers on site – the next step is to lower them onto the base and cover them with 40 mpa concrete<\/li>\n
the property is 50 acres, and has its own water supply<\/li>\n
so far three families have contributed funding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
To secure a berth they are asking for $5000 per adult and $2500 per child, with food and seeds not included.<\/p>\n
If you are interested, Simon’s email address can be found at the above site. Make sure you do your own bunker research, and ask questions like how the containers will be reinforced, how is ventilation being achieved, toilets and so on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
