Re: North Korea planning to test-fire ICBM?
I'm assuming that a strike in North Korea would draw in China. Just worst case scenario. Malheur National Forest would be pretty safe from blasts, right?

Re: Chemical Attacks and US response
Thank you for sharing the links, SCB. As for your observation that 'it's been happening for awhile and no body cared' - I wish I could say something that would not get this thread L&B. I'm just trying to share the news and not really have a discussion, so I'll just keep silent. . Agreed... One topi...

There is no such thing as too many Steri-Strips. God knows those, some surgical gauze, and clear medical tape have saved my ass on several occasions.

Cheap as fuck costume jewelry. Get five sets. For like, 20 bucks. Good for any time, it let's you afford a kickass honeymoon, and if you lose your ring, no big deal.

Re: Bugging Out to Wal-Mart, Costco, Sams Club: No!
Oh, I'd definitely consider bugging out to a Wally World. The one near me has an upper floor that's all offices, with windows overlooking the store. I'd have to be the first one in, with friends setting up all my proper gear elsewhere, but watching the absolute chaos? Hell. Yes.

Re: ramen- not the emergency food of choice
What about supplementing your Ramen stash with Soylent? Long shelf life, a buck a meal, and 33% of basically everything you need. Should cover the bases well.

I don't know about all that.

On the Washington coast, the tsunami would be higher than any evacuation zones. There is no escape. There would be no survivors.

Just ask the pharmacist for extra labels. That solves everything.
