I did a poll on a Yuppie automotive forum and believe it or not, quite a few are prepared for emergencies...survival is our prime function in its rudimentary form of the primitive brain stem. ;)

you'd think more people would be prepare ahead of time for disasters.   seems reasonable that the unprepared could have been weeded out over the last few thousand years.

you know somebody had to say it eventually-

Survival kit contents check. In them you'll find: one forty-five caliber automatic; two boxes of ammunition; four days' concentrated emergency rations; one drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquilizer pills; one miniature combination Russian phrase book and Bible; one hundred dollars in rubles; one hundred dollars in gold; nine packs of chewing gum; one issue of prophylactics; three lipsticks; three pair of nylon stockings. Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.

A group of religious wackos were planning to get most of the town sick on election day so their candidate could win the election. They put Salmonella in the salad bars at several restaurants. A bunch of people got sick; nobody died.

Survival supplies?? Loaded.. aboard my 34' sloop, tied up and in the water, ready to go 1/2 mile from where I sit right now. With food and supplies aboard right now, I can cross an ocean.. or check in on Curval in the Bahamas.

MREs might taste like s**t, but one of them is supposed to sustain you for one day in a combat situation(i.e. burning a lot of calories). They've gotten better since they first came out. I remember the first one I ever had was the pork cube that was as hard as a rock. Why do you think they put Tabasco sauce in there? "To give it some taste"!

:p

LOL, In laboratory conditions with hot water they improved 300 percent. They were still about 700 percent short of tasty though :)

I never could eat the frickin scrambled eggs. Some of it wasn't horrible though, even when not hungry. Then there was Ckicken a la king.

Good thing for this latest world crisis though, maybe a few more folks will do what glock is doing so the US doesn't have to come bail yer tulips out everytime you have a natural diaster. ;)

Yep! I have a generator and if I conserve the fuel long enough I could get 6 weeks out of it, but I assume that it would be run 6 hours a day, so thats about 1 month of power that I'm prepared for.


I have a variety of food stuffs, 2 cases of MRE's, canned food, water, dry stuffs, and alot of first aid stuff (wifes a nurse  )

One can never be TOO prepared.


Oh, I forgot, ammunition for both wild game to supplement the food (we have plenty of it out where I live) and to keep the begging neighbors away who did not prepare.

 


Anyone else see a striking resemblance between Rip and Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) in the movie "Tremors"?

Here is a quote from Burt in the movie:

Quote
[Burt Gummer looks at his bomb shelter for perhaps the last time] Burt Gummer: Food for five years, a thousand gallons of gas, air filtration, water filtration, Geiger counter. Bomb shelter! Underground... Golly-geen monsters.

Along w/ you're survival goods y'all should have a plan for meeting your family at some location, mines a remote location on private property where I have a bunch of survival gear buried.

Most of my family thought I was a bit 'touched' when I distributed a map of the area showing where SOME of the goods are stored...now they don't joke about it anymore.

Learn how to 'shelter in place', have the tools and knowledge to seal yourself in safely incase of an airborne bio or chemical event.

Those that have the money should consider having  level 'b' survival gear handy, level 'a' would be nice but very expensive.

Most people living in earthquake country should already have a basic survival kit ready to go, it would be wise for all to do the same.

I'm afraid that those that don't prepare are going to be the ones demanding a government teat, good luck suckers!

I get the impression that y'all don't believe that we're going to be safer after Dubya's done threatening the planet.
