I quite liked that article. Puts me in mind to have a bug out bag for normal everyday emergencies and another bug out bag for a SHTF situation. I have several made up bug out bags of various sizes for other family members but I may make up a everyday emergency BoB for the whole family. Rucksack size because of the amount of documents that would involve.

Although i'd suggest always having a physical copy of important documents, it could be a good idea to see if you could store a separate copy of these off-site somewhere like at a family member's place or something...and then scanning all those documents into pdf form and storing them on a flash drive for your bugout bag to save space.
Ive even considered burying a pvc pipe with one of these flash drives in it (with an encryption program of course) in the backyard... just as a super cheap backup plan in case something happened to the house and for whatever reason I cant get to my off-site physical backup.

"Preparedness is about learning new things, teaching people new things, responsibility, taking this plastic-coated, dependent society we’ve made and taking REAL control of our part in it. It’s about getting away from convenience and working towards self-sufficiency and building a life and a legacy that can be passed down to future generations so that one day, just maybe, we can reclaim a lot of what we’ve lost."
Want to print that out and frame it.
