• Meet the ‘Preppers’ — The Americans Stockpiling Food & Water for a Possible Collapse

  @ BostonDotty ,
  Being ready for most any “Emergency Situation” is a step in the right direction . First Aid Classes , Food Storage , Fire Arms training , etc. are all useful skills that would make you valuable to any “Post Apocalytic” Community . (“Post Apocalytic” in jest… sort of )

  What you can do if you live in an urban area is to seek out other preppers and like minded people . There are “Meetup” groups all around America and I’m sure in your area too . Having friends with land outside of any possible affected areas can work to your advantage . Work with what you have and can acquire , and work on an exit strategy for your city . Find the best way out of the city in the event of an emergency , usually not the major freeways . We watched the local news in Houston during Hurricanes Rita, Katrina and Ike . The footage of the freeways was un-real , literally people dying in accidents , pets released along the freeway to fend for themselves later dying . And just thousands of stranded cars out of fuel . Ridiculous . My family takes nice Sunday drives after Church , I have found several evacuation routes for our area should we ever need them .

  Again , just do what you can now , and practice , now . During times of stress , fine motor skills go away and muscle memory takes over . In a fight or flight situation having practice in both areas (fight or flight) allows you to make decisions based on experience rather than fright .

  Good Luck and God Bless .
