Read a book, take a walk, communicate with your family. Not a big deal.
Have you ever lived in a hurricane region, where power is out for an extended time? It sucks..
You're right... we didn't all die. But then, we had plenty of food and water being sent in from other areas. What if there ARE no other areas? People today cannot grow their own food. With just-in-time shipping everywhere, food would become scarce very quickly.
I'm not losing any sleep over this.... but, I AM working on a plan. Hopefully, it never happens in my lifetime. But, it COULD also happen this afternoon.
