You post, I lurk. I post, you respond. The masses are awakening. Electric plants are stocking food. Governments are preparing mortuaries. Cities such as Detroit are buying disaster relief supplies. Chemical plants are shutting down for the rollover. Medicare is going to fail. Big name retailers are selling survival items. People are being told to prep for anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks...etc...Have I prepared sufficiently? Does it even matter? The stress is overwhelming. I'm going to Myrtle Beach. It's time to go golfing!

In that case, bring goggles, flippers and shark repellent!
