    You know, I was being a little humorous there, but only a little. There are a number of improbable events — economic collapse, major volcanic eruption, pandemic, a significant blizzard, etc — where I would be concerned about 1) having adequate food stocks to last a while, and 2) being able to defend myself, my fiancee, and our food stocks.

    I’m not some apocalyptic lunatic or anything. But I do believe in insurance. It makes sense to insure against fire, flood, disease, etc. And a (sane) stockpile of food, water, weapons and ammo does seem to be a sort of insurance to me.
