I will still need the grid for Steemit.

I am of the opinion that if you want to live off the grid, then do so and forget about modern conveniences. To live in nature as a part of nature is something we all seem to forget and demolish with our have it now quick and easy lifestyle.

You don't need to check the weather except by doing anything other than stepping outside and having a look around at your surroundings.

The internet exists as merely entertainment and has little to offer in anything recognized as knowledge. There is nothing out there you can't learn from trial and error or conversation with a neighbor.

So if you want to live off the grid, then forget about all these trivial matters and concerns which have no real basis in reality. Just accept things as they come and always make it out on the other side. It makes little difference if there is a hurricane or not. It is the adventure that counts.

You are probably right. There is always the Farmer's almanac for weather forecasts. Do we really need the Internet or Steemit ?

My point is that you don't even need an almanac. Do you think those people who live in Alaska or somewhere more remote care for such things? Even 60 years ago (or less) they never had "need" of anything like an almanac, the weather stations, a radio, a television or anything of the sort.

To say that anyone needs the internet would be absurd.

That is true. Nobody needs the internet or Steemit.
