These are my 'take aways' from this experience we call Y2K. I would be interested in some of the things that you have learned.

1) Our modern society is fragile. This 'revelation' came to me while learning about the interdependency of our world. I had no idea how close we are to chaos on * a good day *.

2) Most people WANT to remain unaware of the dangers we face. Their choice. There is little I can do to change that.

3) When watching the show, pay attention to the man behind the curtain. This came clear to me when I noticed the disconnect between what our government was saying and what they were actually doing. 4) Preparedness is lifestyle. I began preparing for an event. Now I live a preparedness lifestyle. Regardless of the Y2K outcome, I will continue to refine my preparations.

5) Our second amendment rights are very important. It is not about owning guns for hunting or shooting. It is about a check on tyranny.
