Okay, great point. During the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake I lived in Pleasanton, California, about sixty miles from Oakland and San Fancisco. We went three or four days with no power. I was aware of earthquakes and prepared for it. When the power went out the first thing we did was raided the fridge. We figured power would be out for a while so if we didn't eat what was in there right away it would just go bad. The first night we steaks we cooked on the BBQ. Over the next few days we had canned goods, and even back then we kept a lot of bottled water.
A lot of my friends were worried because they didn't have much food on hand. Not me. I was ready.
