    Default Most Effective means to kill Zombies (was SHTF - pandemic?!)

    The Fort Collins Coloradoan headline today:
    Stock up for pending pandemic
    "Owens urged residents to make flu plans, buy disinfectants such as bleach and stock enough food to last one to two months..."

    We've been thinking about this for a while, but now finally mainstream press is pumping it. Is anyone else out there concerned?
    Is anyone adding to their preparations?

    My wife thinks that those of us who read alot of science fiction are more apt to take this seriously.

    Edit: title change, obviously Co AR-15'ers arent taking bird flu seriously enough [wink]

    Well, I think it's a shame that a "public" news outlet would go about inspiring panic and undo concern over the Flu thing. I strongly advise people to do the real research on this, especially where H5N1 is concerned. Anything I say about it would be worthless IMO, but I've done some research and checked up on the science behind it. I'm not stocking up just for a Flu concern personally. Zombies on the other hand... damn now that's scary

    I think the whole bird flu thing is overrated, but the media is milking the fear factor for all it's worth. It's probably gonna end up like SARS, which killed what, 50 people worldwide? Non-issue.

    Looking back at Katrina

    I think the Govt. is in favor of anything that encourages preparedness

    No matter how unlikely

    My favorite quote from the whole post-Katrina reviews and hearings was when the spokes person from FEMA said something to the extent of...

    We need to have the right plans and equipment in place, along with the proceedures that will allow us to say, we're from the Federal Goverment and We're here to help... and not have everyone laugh.

    So to say the goverment wants you to be prepaired would be an understatement. If you expect the goverment to provide for you, then that's your own damn lazy fault.

    i don't know anyone who does not have some kind of disinfectant in their house. unless they have an adversion to cleaning!!

    we'll see if the coloradoan prints my letter to the editor regarding their scare tactic reporting.
