Ok, fine, I respect your opinion, I am not forcing you to answer anything I merely asked, and you have made yourself clear so I'm going to ask you to just please leave if you don't have anything positive to say or input.

[bigpaul]

Sorry bout that can u answer these please:
1.Do you know what a solar storm is and what a large solar storm could do to our society?

Yes. I'm a ham operator and have the current SF, A, K, and SSN numbers displayed on the task bar in my browser in real time. By the way, an article in the new QST magazine says that we're headed into a period of reduced solar activity.

Quote:2.How often do you use an elevator?

Very seldom.

Quote:3.Do you have some fresh batteries on standby?

Lots!

Quote:4.When you fill your vehicles fuel tank up, do you fill any fuel containers as well?

Only if the containers are empty... Pri-G anyone?

Quote:5.Do you have a non electric cooking option?

Yes.

Quote:6.If you take any prescription medication, do you have enough to last you a couple of months without restocking?

Yes.

Quote:7.Do you keep cash on hand (out of your bank)?

That's not your concern.

I have two methods of alternate power for my HF SW station.

Quote:9.Do you keep several gallons of unscented chlorine bleach in your house?

Nope - just a gallon. We have close access to a well.

Quote:If yes, then do you know the percentage of chlorine in the bleach?

Yes. The percentage is standard in the US by law.

Quote:Would you know how to disinfect the water using the bleach?

Yes.

Quote:10.Do you own a non-electronic can opener?

Several.

Quote:11.Do you keep sun cream in your house?

Are you kidding? We live in Texas!

Quote:12.How much of your food requires refrigeration of some kind?

10% - 15%, nothing that we can't afford to lose.

Twice a month.

First of all I would like to apologise if you thought it was too personal - I meant i.e. in case of a blackout you can't really get money out of a bank then right?

I don't know where everyone lives...

Thank you for your time
