This is a great share. Thanks for the information. I think not only for major disasters but for just everyday living being prepared for the worst is always important.

I remember the Blackout that occurred in 2003 that hit the MidWest, Eastern United States and even Canada. I didn't realize how much electricity was a part of my life until; I couldn't open a can, couldn't warm up any food on the oven, do laundry....I mean nothing.

I have since purchased a rotary can opener, candles, matches (lighters), batteries, flashlights..etc. They are great tools to have in case of an outage. Let's hope that it will never happen again but just in case, I am prepared.
