I'm reading the book, "Apocalypse Pretty Soon" by Alex Heard.

There is a chapter about Earth Changers, people that think the Earth is going to revolt and there will be terrible earthquakes and such until "only a few survive". These are the people who stock up on several years worth of food and move to the woods.

I live in a little village in New Hampshire. We send our kids to a school in the next town, Chesterfield (our village is too small to have any more than a post office).

I'm reading along when this pops out, "Scallion was patched in live via satellite from the Matrix Institute, his Earth Changes think tank and hideaway in the solid granite hills of Chesterfield, New Hampshire."
whoa!

For one thing, Chesterfield is very small, and I've never heard of the guy. Seriously, this is a town where you go to the dump and know the names of everyone else dumping their trash there. The post office workers in both my village and the town of Chesterfield know me, I just walk up and they'll just hand me my mail.

I did find this site. If you scroll down, under Chesterfield this guy is listed as a psychic.

Here's the bad news. This is a bad end times place to live as we are in the "danger" zone for the local Nuke Plant. Vermont Yankee sends us all evacuation maps every year. The granite hills are all North of us, not here in the South with the smaller hills.

It's just funny to find we not only have a Christian fundie camp in town (Camp Spofford) and we have our fair share of people that believe owning a rocket launcher is our constitutional right, but now we have our own psychic.

I have got to meet this guy!

The answer is obvious. It says right there, "IN the solid granite" etc. Think deep tunnels and secret entrances concealed inside innocent-looking New England cottages. The man's working underground -- not metphorically but literally!

We should be making $10,000 an hour as story consultants for a really really sleazy TV series.

(Edited to add a second really.)
 
I'm thinking it would be fun to invite this guy to my skeptic weekend bash!

I wonder if he would show up?
 
Probably armed to the teeth.

Keep your daughters away from him. He wouldn't stand a chance.
 
Not to worry, Lil' LeFevre should be there by now to protect the wimmenfolk.

That's right... *flexes muscles*

And if we were in REALLY dire straights, I could always throw my rock collection at him... I have some really heavy volcanic rocks that would do a number on him.

Really, though, if he tried to do any harm to my sister or I Pool Boy would be out there in a flash trying to cut his head off with the rusty sword he uses in his formal Navy get-up.

Gee, wonder why my boyfriends always break-up with me after they meet daddy?
