Extreme Prepper

I fell asleep watching something in a hotel room and woke up to a show that profiled preppers - folks who prepare for one doomsday scenario or another.  In the episode, a well to do gentleman had procured a year's worth of dried food, bought filters to purify his pool water for drinking, planted his entire estate with edible foliage and closed the program by buying a helicopter with which to bug out with if things really got bad. 

His concern?  Earhquakes.  He lives in Southern California and he's convinced the big one is coming.  He wants to be prepared and has spent a considerable amount of his fortune to make sure he and his family survives.

It occurred to me that he's done just about everything possible except for the most obvious: MOVE.

People are crazy.
