Jim prefers contact via e-mail.
Because of the large volume of e-mail that we receive, we cannot respond to every piece of e-mail. Our apologies if you don't get a response or if there is a lengthy delay in our response. We only post selected letters that we think would be of interest to most SurvivalBlog readers.
Note: Because we live way out in the hinterboonies, we have a slow
dial-up connection. So please refrain from sending us any large e-mail attachments
(Photo attachments are the main culprit.) OBTW tinypic.com is a great way to
send links to photos without hosting them on your own server.
I was under strict orders from the late Memsahib keep
the location of the Rawles
Ranch private. All that I can say is that it is "Somewhere
West of the Rockies." Nor
can I mention the names of our children. The Vonage phone
line that we use has a prefix in another state. I'm sure that you can understand
the security concerns that go along with our survival
preparations.
Our mail forwarding address (for mailing your contributions,
review copies of books, sample products, hard copy letters, et cetera) is:
James Wesley, Rawles
c/o Elk Creek Company
P.O. Box 303
Moyie Springs, Idaho 83845-0303 USA
Note: I provide my Vonage phone number only to
pre-paid consulting clients. Before hiring me for consulting, please first
search the SurvivalBlog archives and FAQs, and
do a Google "Groups" search for
my Usenet posts with a time span back to 1992. (I started using the Internet
in the late 1980s and began posting to
Usenet newsgroups
in February
of 1992.) If you need my expertise about something that I haven't previously
published, my fee is $100 per hour, with a 1/2-hour minimum. You can send
pre-payment to my GunPal, GearPay, AlertPay or
PayPal account. (We prefer GunPal because
they don't share PayPal's anti-gun political agenda.)
Our GunPal address
is: james@rawles.to
Our AlertPay address
is: rawles@usa.net
Our GearPay address is: rawles@usa.net
But if you must use PayPal, our address is: james@rawles.to
Be sure to include your e-mail address, phone number, and and the best time to schedule the call in your online payment instructions.
You can also send pre-payment for up to two hours of consulting (in 30 minute increments) via U.S. Postal Service Money Orders or "Forever " (Liberty Bell) postage stamps ONLY (NO checks or other forms of payment accepted) to the address noted above.
For the past 10 years, I have consulted on publishing topics and a variety of survival-related topics including relocation, logistics, communications, firearms, privacy, communications security, food storage, caching, vehicles, field gear, signals intelligence, retreat architecture, and retreat security. On the advice of my attorney, I never have and WILL NOT EVER discuss any potentially criminal activities such as bomb making, poaching, poisons/toxins, fully automatic firearms conversions, or firearms suppressor ("silencer") construction. If you raise any such topics then I will immediately terminate the consulting call. No exceptions!
Please refrain from trying to get me to join Twitter, or any of the other social networks. I get more than 150 e-mails per day, and that is bad enough, but getting an extra 20 proclaiming that "John Smith is following you on Twitter" drives me crazy. I don't respond to any of these. Thanks!
