Was looking at another site and the discussion of having a supply cache set up was being kicked around. I've got a (good for me) GHB in the car and can easily get supporting gear at work. At home I've got enough for us (wife plus me) to get along for a reasonable time and also mobile enough to move if we have to.
With all that - it seems to be a good idea to have a "storage" place for some basic materials if you ever have to "go" and need to have something to help you survive and/or make a bad situation better. A near by friend/family is a logical point to start and for the truly paranoid you can go 'hide' something someplace like a long-term storage site. What say you??
Paul -
Having a reciprocal storage arrangement (you store theirs, and they store yours) with a "survival buddy" household is a decent idea. A couple tubs of gear in a backyard storage shed is about as good as a small U-Haul storage locker. There's less security, but you won't get locked out in an area wide incident.
