Re: fallout -- I have a finished basement. I hang onions in a portion of the area under the stairs, but otherwise, I keep that space clear. There's room for the roll away bed in that area. There's also a half-bathroom, and I could improvise a shower. I could also add a table and put together a makeshift kitchen. There's two small sliding windows that would help with venting.
That's what'll be my fallout shelter if it comes to that. I admit that I have a hard time wrapping my head around that idea. I haven't been able to bring myself to make sandbags. I can see the grid going down in the summer, tornadoes, and major supply chain problems from earthquakes, but I've just never gotten nudged really hard to mess with sandbags, which I know my back won't like at all.
In a pinch, I'd gather up my water jugs, fill those, and make a three-foot wall.
I don't know. I think a food shortage / lack of money coming in will be the problems I'll face. I also think that if I keep the basics on hand and have plenty of gasoline, it'll be really annoying, but I'll survive just fine.
Guess I'll have to see. I'm not planning to live forever, either, but I'll take reasonable precautions.
