Just a suggestion for those interested. I've had my 72 hour kit for five years now, I rotate the food yearly, check everything else. "If ye are prepared, ye need not fear." I didn't portray this kit as anything else than a 72 hour kit. As a member of the LDS church, we are also counseled to have a year's supply of food and water. Would you like me to post that list? :)

Might be a good idea. Most aren't taking the danger series, but for those who always intended to do that someday, this might be the day.

Please do post the list. I never understood how long canned food will last.. If I were to buy more than 6 cases of vegies for example..how often should they be rotated? Or how long will 6 cases last?

Those of us in earthquake country also have emergency kits in the house and the car. Thanks for the post.

You offered to post the list of food and water as counseled by your church. I, for one, would love to see that list. I have no idea how to prepare or store food like that. I have known some LDS members (I actually housesat for them once) who had food stashed all over the place. All I noticed was all the boxes of cereal. I kick myself for not asking them about it (although I was embarassed at the time, not wanting to appear like a snoop, but damn they had food *all over the place*). Anyway, since you offered, I am interested. I feel lacking as a wife in this department.
