A major earthquake on the west coast or new madrid would make you regret not having what you need to survive.
To me there a difference between having an earthquake kit with supplies for a few days and $1,199.99 ("after $300.00 off") for the Costco thing.

One is reality and one borders on lunacy.

I've been through a mudslide, a fire and of course a few earthquakes just because of where i live. A few days worth of stuff is the most I would ever bother with and yes if I'm wrong I'm wrong and I will be one of those women you so eloquently suggested would be blowing Hell's Angels I suppose.

I know what you mean about the Apple fanatics...
