Two off-topic questions: what else is in the bag? And are there other scenarios that you've specifically prepared for?

- ChuckMcM 8y agoOk, you pushed me over the edge :-) See : https://github.com/ChuckM/CarEarthquakePrep https://github.com/ChuckM/CarEarthquakePrep
- techstrategist 8y agoWow, thanks for writing that up! I’ve had some thoughts about collaborative prepping for “realistic” scenarios and this gives me something to chew on. Personally I’m not in an earthquake zone, but my 5th floor apartment is just about sea level in Holland so I’m thinking about what the coming decades might look like here.
- blacksmythe 8y ago>> A lot of people ask why I have a surgical laceration kit in my go-bag given that I am not qualified to actually use it. My reasoning stems from what I have seen across many disasters that have occurred all over the world. In the most likely scenario for the bay area, an earthquake (like the Loma Prieta quake or the Northridge quake), all these people are moving around and then boom, everything stops moving. At that instant in time you have a cross section of people evenly distributed across an area, then some percentage of them will be health care workers (Nurses, Doctors, PAs etc). And the hospitals will be far away.
