The series of tropical storms, building into hurricanes, off Florida
right now might be studied as an object lesson in survival strategy.
Basically, does one: 1) do nothing but wait for an emergency situation
to present itself?, 2) plan ahead and have tactics and resources
ready?, or 3) depend on your ability to react in a timely fashion?
I'm guessing that in New Orleans right now there are those who
represent all three options: 1) some will stay put, based on their
lack of resources and willingness to hunker down and get through it;
2) a large number will have resources ready to get out of town, plus
know what to do based on experience with Katrina and Gustav; 3) quite
a few are ready to deal with TSHTF in terms of their ability to react
in time in various ways, staying flexible.
