Thank you, Miles.
Tons seems almost like an understatement.

I liken it to drinking from a firehose - take what you can!

Hi, Bill.

A fire hose is right.
And a race against time.

Thanks.

Never mind.

I signed up with the email I used, here,.
Confirmation went ok, again.

But, this time, I received an email I did not receive, before.

Thank you.

There was only the one place to enter any information, to accept the offer.

That was for an email address, only.
That location is at the top right side of the page.

That's the way it worked on my system too (w/FireFox) when signing up on 02/06/2015. And I quickly received "confirm your subscription" e-mail, and clicking on the confirmation link in that message brought up the confirmation web page. Then shortly thereafter the second / confirmation e-mail arrived with subject line "subscribed to paul wheaton's permaculture". I can confirm that contained in the body of that message is a plain text URL of the annex6 rocket mass heater plans. Copy and paste that URL to the web browser accessed the rocket mass heater plans pdf file just fine.

OK, a shot in the dark. Maybe the confirmation e-mail is ending up in the junk mail folder on some folk's systems?

Hi, Byron.

It is entirely possible that I deleted the confirmations, not expecting anything else to be included. If that is the case, then I no longer have the link. I treat the junk folder as an extension of the regular email folder. I always check it for misplaced emails.

If I deleted an email with the link, could Cassie send me that link?
Or would it be better to simply sign up again, with a different email.?

If it makes a difference, I am running the Pale Moon Browser - a fork of Firefox.
In the signup page, there was no input blocks, other than the one on the top right side of the page.

No input blocks appeared below the picture of wilbur the calf.

Hi, Cassie.

I have not gotten that 'subscribed' email.
I did receive a couple of the daily emails, though.

I saw Paul's offer for the Rocket Mass Heater Plans: 6" Annex Variation and
signed up: http://richsoil.com/email.jsp

I used a different email address from the one for the permies forums.
I received my first email:
permies news; 80 plants promo; the permaculture movement; google earth

but I did not receive the plans for the Rocket Mass Heater.

Do I need to do something else?

Hello.

I am a lone wolf, in the MO, AR, OK area - just hanging out, acting like I'm knowing what I'm doing...
I think I just retired early - if the social security system continues to function.
Otherwise, I a trucker between trucks.

I'm pretty well aware of current events.
I am also fairly ignorant of the many self-sufficient skills that are and will be needed.
Not completely, as I can hunt and skin game, as well as do some heavy work and other stuff.
Picking peas takes everything out of me, in about 10 minutes, though.

This is a little mantra that I use from time to time, for those not yet awake:
If you don't grow your own, you will starve to death.
If you don't heat with wood, you will freeze to death.
If you don't have a horse, you will walk and do your own labor.
And, if you can't defend your stuff, you will likely lose it, and maybe also your life.

I've been aware of this site for a while.
Yesterday, I signed on for Paul Wheaton's offer for the Rocket Mass Heater Plans.

Today, I registered here, largely because of that offer.

So, howdy do.
