We just had our neighborhood holiday party and several of us ended up in a corner talking preparedness. It turns out that my nagging got through, at least to a few people. We made plans to meet again after the holidays.
We all seem to be concerned about different things. I just generally what to be prepared; one guy is really worried about Bird Flu, another about economic collapse, another about a terrorist attack. What's great is at least four of my neighbors are getting prepared and want to do it as a group. A good step in the right direction.
