Re: [RC] More evacuation options-survival advice - Carrie Kitley
Righto!! Aside from being prepared, there still is NO warning to speak of. You could get trapped at work, then all your stockpiles don't do any you good.

"... earthquake territory, for which there is NO warning. So, to "plan" for that is futile, ..."
Planning to run is futile, but there is lots that can be prepared.
1. In a big one power can go out. Be ready for that
2. Transport can be difficult. Food, and meds stockpiled
3. Construction of the house/ barns, preventing post quake fires.etc.
4. How to get home from work with bridges down etc.
5. What to use for money
6. How will scattered family members contact (even small children and or their caretakers) each other. Assuming cell phones down, where to leave word, perhaps to use red cross to all contact an out of state relative.
