My wife and I both carry a 3 day survival kit of food, water, first aid kit, flashlight, basic tools, a change of clothes etc. in the trunk of each car (in case we have to evacuate seperately). We have agreed to a meeting place (her mom's, small town, South Texas) and have charted and driven a route there that doesn't involve using the highways. Our home is also well stocked. I have done all I feel can do to protect us in case of secondary fall-out drifting over Houston. And, because I have done all I feel I can do.....not going to worry about it anymore.

I am glad you are prepared. Unfortunately in NJ you would be regarded as borderline survival nut. I keep about one week of emergency supply for my family based on past state emergencies such as one year we had 11 major snow storms, which atleast 3 were declared emergencies as well as two severe floods caused by Noreaster weather conditions. The worst one actually closed the state roads for 72 hours, and it took the state/FEMA to restablish normal conditions in about a week. I was the few in my community that had food and water. After 9/11 I figure more would be prepared, but unfortunately I am still the lonely voice in the wilderness. Maybe I should move to Texas.
