Inexpensive Perimeter Alarm

Inexpensive perimeter alarm | ModernSurvivalOnline.com: "Security after TEOTWAWKI (The End of the World as We Know It) will be important.

    You COULD rig it with a trip wire connected to the switch to turn it on. But why? A trip wire works much easier on the trigger of a air horn!

So, when your comment doesn't appear immediately, *DO NOT* throw a hissy-fit and assume I'm refusing negative comments (yes, it really happened). I approve pretty much everything that isn't obvious SPAM, negative or not, and I promise you that will include your hissy-fit comments, accusing me of a grand conspiracy to squash dissenting ideas (also really happened). The result, of course, being that you will look like a fool, and the rest of us will laugh heartily at your stupidity.
