Blast, I read your post with great interest. I'm planning to move the family to a river-view highrise co-op in about a year. My dream come true. I've been thinking about the preparedness challanges in moving from a large home and yard. The two biggest chalenges seem to be human waste storage and disposal in an extened utility interruption and getting an extended bailout kit to ground level in an evacuation scenario. I'm thinking five gallon bucket toilet, extra buckets, bleach and large, wheeled duffle bags. The hand truck suggestion also deserves consideration . Ditto concernig the rabbi-ears antenna. I would welcome an extended discussion/thread on this subject.
