lets get real.....

Although having rarely seen eye to eye with Sunna, I agree with you on this.

Personally, I believe NOTHING will happen in my lifetime. I put it down to a 1% or 2% chance of there being a major event that effects me. Strikes and the alike…very interesting news, but really wouldn't effect my life. Look at the miners strikes, for around 90% of people, life went on as normal. Fuel strikes a few years ago….we all died from that. Well, okay, that's a lie. We survived and some of us actually got a few days off work! Result! Weather…America survives with crazy tornadoes/hurricanes, and the people up in Alaska survive fine. If it's super dry, well, the people in Texas survive, and all those in-between. So I'm not hugely worried. Famine is usually localised to a place like a country, and genocide is very unlikely to happen around the UK. Living in the South West causes a few concerns to dwindle, e.g. suicide bombers. What are they going to blow up, a handful of cows?

I plan to live my lit as if nothing is going to happen. I am planning my life around nothing happening. However, with there being a 1% chance of something happening, I'm getting ready incase it does happen. I'm actually getting ready to the point where, no matter what happens, we'll have stuff ready for it. No I don't think there will be a major EOTWAWKI event, but I do think if there is one, we'll be pretty nicely set up by 2 more years time.
