I think they make left handed duct tape ;)

I know that they do and I have a roll of it.

What is troubling me in my preparations is which side of the plastic sheeting to expose to the weather?

Don't tell me-TWO Monty Python fans on one thread? You are starting to scare me!

Those freaks are everywhere on this forum. I'm not going to duct tape anything. I'm just going to have a pointed stick to attack anything suspicious. After I get my shower.

Also know that if the event occurs there will be mushroom clouds in the middle east.

There isn't a person within miles of "The Button" who is willing to push it. Because of the appeasniks who have decimated this country like a cancer, our nukes are not threats since everyone (but you) knows that they will never be used.

What if the house is in a densely populated city?

Speaking of Cheese... have you ever seen THIS movie?

It's the story of two friends who, oddly enough, want to make a Duct Tape Moose...

True. But if you have an Israeli gas mask with a 40MM NATO approved filter you can survive an additional 8.4 minutes. At least that's what the directions say...but there is no warranty.

Save your money and buy a gun. Exert "pressure" on any Muslims that try to infiltrate or move in to your community

What?

They want to kill non-Muslims. You want their mosque as close to your house as possible.

First lay out the plastic wrap and duct tape it to the floor. Then get a big can of crisco and spread it all over the plastic wrap. Then, take off your..........

Oops sorry, wrong instruction booklet.

from east to west, so that the tremendous wind caused by the earth's rotation won't blow it loose.

Is it true that the alleged 'Global Warming' is caused by the friction generated by the trees as the earth rotates? If that's the case, shouldn't we be cutting down even MORE trees????

When you pass out from lack of oxygen you will know the room is properly sealed.

Well, the FIRST thing you should do is to go get a hepa filter, some ducting, a ducting fan, and some wide (like dryer hoses) hose.

Nothing like positive air pressure to help the aesthetics of your house. WWMD (What would Martha [Stewart] Do)? Just what you suggested.

To really peeve the neighbors, have a strong air filtering system running on a generator.

You select one or two rooms and then seal the exterior doors and windows. The cracks around the closed interior door are then sealed.

It is not necessary to seal the whole house. The length of the time required for sealing will not be long. The gas will dissappate unless the house is in a depression.

Take out all of the plastic from it's package and unravel all of the duct tape. Then gather all of it up and throw it in your garbage can...on second thought don't even open the packages, just throw them in the trash

I wish I had an answer to your question because it seems sincere to me.~ And, I too, would appreciate an answer.

I have nothing funny or clever to say. ~ All I can say is: May we each do the best we can...and, Godspeed.
