Have an open mind but no so open that your brains fall out

We must not try to venture into the absurd.

Well while you "receiving all the data and information, encrypting, decrypting, analyzing and interpreting"... I will be busy making sure my household is secure and has an emergency plan... Right now our pantry holds easily three months food and our pool has 35,000 gallons of water that could be used for drinking if need be...

Its always wise to be prepared... THEN you can sit back on a forum and preach doom and gloom

Now then how about a list of what you need?

I will add the first item...

TOILET PAPER

Oh yeah? just try living without that for a month... :P

And forget money... it will be worthless...

Stockpile liquor and things like pocket knives and water proof matches

Booze will be worth more than gold when things go bad...
