There is no doubt that the weather is changing. With recent hurricanes, economic crisis, and Mr. Dick Bin Laden still at large, natural disasters now are more a part of our lives than ever. Just watch FoxNews or CNN for an hour or two to become a little scared about the possibility of the sky falls on our heads at any time. There are so many (or too many) cogs in the wheels of our economic system that allow any minor disturbance to have an effect seriously detrimental to the supply chain of goods to local grocery stores.

Recently I have read many, many websites and blogs that have to do with hurricane survival, survival in disaster preparedness and survival. One aspect of preparing for a situation Prolonged survival has been frequently overlooked is how to deal with family, friends and neighbors who have not prepared for the worst after the turd hits the fan. Remember, you were smart and prepared for a disaster with an overall survival kit with a 3 months supply of food and water, maybe a gun or two, and some must have luxury items, because you realize you can not trust anybody, but when things get ugly (ie Hurricane Katrina).

This is where I would propose a series of hypothetical questions.

While your next door neighbor went on a vacation of luxury and expensive in Europe and not heed the warning to prepare, who shares her survival rations?

Your best friend just bought a new Corvette and is more worried about rims and tires that prepare a survival kit, want to share your survival supplies kit?

Your sister does not even keep a can of corn in her cupboards, but she knows that you did, and they've been saying since before Y2K that have been preparing for a disaster, would you share your art?

A pack of hungry, desperate, and angry citizens decide that their supplies are now theirs, that you defend your supplies by all means necessary?

We've been very fortunate in our life have not experienced a severe shortage of basic staple goods and empty store shelves. However, we have never faced as a country in the sands economic shifting are drowning in today. Oh yes, do not forget Mother Nature, because it is what is really in charge. I'm still trying to define my answers to the questions posed above, but it's worth a moment of time to discuss both issues and possible responses.
