Probably like most posters to this forum, I'm pretty well prepared for urban situations in non-crisis times just with my EDC. However, this forum has greatly increased my awareness of the more exotic eventualities, such as the ones listed by miniMe. As a result, I prepared a Bug-Out Scenario worksheet, with input from some of you folks, and posted it on the web for easy access. Just like our kits, I'm constantly tinkering with the list:

On another note, I'm finding it challenging to "complete the circle" on this type of preparedness thinking when it comes to my children. I have a 3-year old and a newborn. I'm sure other parents out there can attest to how long it takes sometimes to get little ones ready to leave the house, even for just a simple outing. Sometimes I wonder how quickly we could do it if our lives depended on it. I suppose a drill is in order.
