About the Author:
Kathy Harrison refers to herself as the Doris Day of Doom, something which makes me feel that beneath the wonderful lady exterior lurks the heart of a horrible warlord. I'm onto you Kathy, don't you forget it.
1. New Madrid fault - electricity, gasoline, rolling power failures (1 in 50)
Of the electricity and power related disaster circumstances observed on the show up to now, an earth quake on the New Madrid fault seems to be by far the most devastating. In contrast to solar related EMP activities, a serious earth quake along New Madrid would be a long term upset in the ability to get power from the grid.
Rolling blackout might be expected, however not the frying of electric products. Yet again, this is taken with a grain of salt because of Doomsday Preppers history of simplifying prepper's inspirations. I feel that if you are truly concerned with getting ready for grid-level electrical issues, it will be wise to buy generators or renewable energy sources.
2. Kathy and Bruce get political
Kathy and Bruce self identify as New England liberals and take a political pose against pistols. This doesn't actually seem sensible to me. Pistols are a tool just like anything else. If there was a political party versus water purifiers, do you feel people will be against obtaining those for preparation reasons?
There is a certain amount of courageousness required for people to be doomsday preppers in the modern-day as they facing social norms. It is a radical lack of awareness to believe that one doesn't need gun related safety in a survival scenario. Living in a non-urban area, there are reasons besides raiders to need a gun. Suppose a bear smelled food in their house? You are not likely to get him to leave with common courtesy.
3. Growing food and barter
Ignoring the ability to protect it, the thought of stockpiling resources as a way to trade in a post-apocalyptic world is an extremely intelligent thought. Unfortunately, it gives the more obsessed of us a reason to prolong their prepping beyond what they would actually require. Kathy and Bruce have a great idea with regards to honey.
The knowledge that honey does not spoil is generally true. Honey has supposedly even been present in edible form in pyramids. Due to the sugar content within it, honey will destroy any cellular organism (including bacteria) by drawing the moisture from it via osmosis. This is the same principle behind salting meat. However, if honey can draw moisture from the air, once it reaches a particular point it might in fact spoil. As always, appropriate storage is very important.
4. Community effort
The Harrisons' dedication to developing a community is excellent and will serve them properly in a post-apocalyptic situation. The ability to proceed with life as normal in a community is important to maintaining sanity and preventing cabin fever. Needless to say, if they might get over their fear of guns they could have a fearsome squad going on. Kathy could be the head.
