Flee the Flu

I am not a survivalist, per se, but unlike the mainstream media who mock them, I admire those who prepare for the worst. While events such as Y2K fortunately fizzled, those who prepare for every eventuality will at some point, be the one's most likely to survive a cataclysm. With the horrifying speed with which the new swine flu outbreak has ravaged Mexico City, those who prepare in media res by stockpiling canned goods, MREs, long-shelf life non-perishables like soda crackers are the people who won't have to go out to obtain food when and if the flu arrives. Those who bring their loved ones to an isolated, provisioned survival cabin are the least likely to be exposed to any potential pandemic.
