I'm with you, Hendo. I just had a meal of canned ham, and homemade bread (getting those supplies down to a manageable level...although I have always had a "generous" pantry). Tonight I was reading about China and Taiwan, and if you think India and Pakistan are hot spots.....sheesh, check that out!(posted 9625 days ago)I can't spend the rest of my life worrying about things over which I have no control, so I prepare for contingencies as best as I can, and then I get on with having a life. What's the point of worrying about stuff so much that you miss out on this interesting experience while you prepare for some other possibilities?
I really think we should accept life as unpredictable, prepare alternatives as best as we can, and then find some tranquility in having done so. Then.....have some fun!
Just my $.02...and FWIW, I prepped big time for y2k....and of course, your mileage may vary.....
