The opposite of ignorance it's knowledge, not fear. Applied knowledge is preleration.
Prelerations reduces fear not increases it. Preperation is building safety, security, resilience and capacity.

From imaginary dangers.
I new a guy who spend tens of thousands of dollars and hours prepping for y2k. Guess what, nothing happened.
I can understand having some supplies for a blizzard or earthquake, but to amass mass quantities of things for something that most likely won't happen is paranoid.

I believe having enough stock piled to survive for one year in the event of a huge catastrophe is a great goal, but that is an extensive and expensive prep. The government recommends 3 days, most say a few weeks at least is much better. Start with a small prep and extend It slowly and steadily as you can afford it.
Get the absolute basics first, it won't cost much. Maybe spend 100 dollars at a grocery store for a basic week long prep .

Sun King, calling Moonshoe a nutter is a flame. If you are against the idea thats fine, just don't attack the person.
Personally I think a 1 month bug-in prep is prudent and recommended in these dynamic times.
Even my government made TV ads recommending people to, in effect, prepare a bug out bag to tide you over for a few days.
It makes sense to take precautions to have what you need in case of calamity. It provides peace of mind.
Do I prepare for great natural disasters? Not specifically. I live above sea level, for one. What I prep for is the fact that everybody is lying to everybody, providing each other with inflated or mitigated numbers and reports about the status quo and we got people in power who think anything goes and if it fails we'll bail them out - so yeah I expect there to be a serious service interruption, a hiccup in the flow of society sometime soon, by societal systems partly failing.
a hyperinflation, bank holiday, cascade of banks going bankrupt, the EU falling apart, stuff like that.

No, it's Rad Away. It's what people in the wasteland do when their rad levels get to be too high.

The point I was making is that it's ridiculous to think you can keep yourself segregated from a disaster or from the other people in it. That radiation free smoked salmon won't keep me from being exposed in every other way possible by low dose radioation. I'd have to stop eating food from California altogether. I could probably get a fortune for it on ebay though if it is still good.

My point was a video game reference in which you have to scavenge food and water to live but it's all contaminated with radiation, and to get rid of the build up of radiation, you need to take a few of those. Or go pay a doctor to give you blurry vision for a second. Either or.

I don't got time for video games so I don't recognize the references, sorry. I had an Atari and Nintendo as a kid though.

Don't know, I was in a different department at that time.
