Mayor tells police, "Kill"

The 1906 earthquake in San Francisco produced this poster. What have you done to prepare for a huge natural (or otherwise) disaster? One that deprives you of all outside services and utilities.

Well, I figure I'm covered in the event of a nuclear war since I live close enough to Norad to take one of the first hits. It is my hope that I will have enough time to grab a lawn chair and a bottle of wine and watch the first big explosion until I too become nothing more than a cloud of radio-active ions dancing in the atmosphere. Any other disaster I am prepared for by keeping my camping gear and a carton of American Spirits in my 4x4 at all times. I'll just vanish into the mountains until whatever it is gets straightened out.

That would be one HELL of a Light show !!!!!!


We got prepaired a few years ago when they were talking about that a big quake on the NewMadrid fault was due . We loaded a few easyly grabable tupperware boxes with dyr goods , beans ,ramen noodles, koolaid , first aid stuff etc,,,,, oh and for a multi purpuse sorce of Alcahol a big bottle of PGA ( pure grain alcahol ) , you can clean wounds with it , or mix it with kool aid to drink or make a molitov cocktail for a weapon . We keep the camping stuff all in one place , and we discussed some evecuation planes ( where to go if the shit goes down ) .

Zip, did you live along the fault when the geologist made the 50-50 prediction of a massive earthquake back in late 1990?
