This guy who wrote this plan is a nuclear physicist & engineer. I don't think he is a Ron Paul supporter, he wrote this plan for surviving a solar storm. Its the best plan that covers all the bases that I have seen. Check it out.
Thanks for the link, but I've always found that in a crisis it pays to panic, and if that doesn't work--running amok is always a good thing. It's like evasive maneuvers--you're a harder target to hit.
If you choose not to be prepared that fine with me. There are many different reasons why being prepared would help your family. If this county has a massive economic depression that would be a day in the park compared to a massive solar storm or an asteroid collision. But there are other disasters that do occur such as hurricanes.
You thrive on being a condescending smartass, so be it.
