<nightmares >> Jeff, of all of the possible ones,outside of nuk war, by far the worst one would be life-survival unpreparedness, e.g., having one week too little food, two days too little clean water,and to a far lesser degree, one week too little cash, couple of days too little ...and so on.

There is a real potential that what you and I and everyone else have for food and water and medication, etc., on or around Jan 1, possibly even earlier, may be what we will have to live off of for.....?

Is that worth taking any chances on? Does it not seem absurd to not spend at least as much for survival insurance as for auto, medical, homeowners insurance?

BTW, I would not call them my nightmares, only my nightmare senarios.

I have already passed my period of real nightmares---the unprepared are yet to experience theirs---I experienced mine in the best of times-they will experience theirs in the worst of times, when its too late for responsible action to diminish them.
