I think what it boils down to is you have to plan for contingencies. (That was the governments fualt in all of this) Here on the east coast a hurricane is one of the most likely scenerios. So, if a class 3 or better is headed this way, I pack up the camper and head inland. Should a riot or something break out, I lock the doors and get out the shotgun. Should TEOTWAWKI happen, I have plans for that. That said, seeing from NO. If you only plan for 3 days, you might be in trouble. I know I'd be like the guy they showed on TV. Flooded all around him, sitting on a second story balcony saying to the reporter, "I'm fine. I have food, water, and everything I need"
