Floods from the rivers, lakes and creeks? Tornados? All your supplies are washed away or destroyed? And the same thing that hit Japan hits you? (Godzilla, Mothra and Rodan)
How about: What if Killer Bee Suicide Bombers with Smallpox spray out of your shower one morning?? And then somehow the Sun Explodes? Can you pack your space suit SHTF bag and get to warp speed before the shock wave annihilates earth???
Seriously, when you plan for something, KNOW WHERE YOU ARE OR ARE GOING. Japan knows they get earthquakes and tsunamis, that's why they didn't have tens of thousands of deaths, like say, Cleveland would if they had an 8.9 quake (as they are more prepared for rivers catching fire and transient homeless).
Indeed, piling a bunch of fancy crap into your house/car/pockets is all well and good, but it ends up being knowledge that matters. Knowing what you can do with whats on hand and whats around you will fair better than some geardo sitting on their computer making SHTF lists.
I hear you, I am not saying that you can plan for everything, but they have found fault lines around the USA that they didn't know existed several years ago, and with Japan getting almost a perfect storm, don't say it can't happen, I said in the post we prep for what is most likely first and go from there.
I know you could have several bad things happen in a short time frame, if anything, it should be a good reminder to prep for what we can and to enjoy each and every day for the day that it is, So when monkeys come out my butt...aka(butt monkey) and killer bees out of my shower head I guess I'll be in trouble, cuz I won't be planning for that.
