    3 days and the store was 3/4 empty. No dary, no bread, shelf's empty of everything but auto supplies and air fresheners. She understands now.


    Yup, we used to live up in Edwards and it would almost get scary when 70 was closed and nothing could make it to the hills. It would only take hours to pick all the dairy, produce, meats, and bakery, after the second day all the water was gone along with everything else thats easy to cook, then after three days it was almost picked clean. All of that under a short-term, local shortage was enough to convince my wife.
