Just one item before we get back to our blue ribbon panel featuring Matt Pinto, Rich Ryan, Dr. Scott Hahn, Chris Ryland, David Palm, and yours truly. Bless our mothers, console our mothers, and keep them healthy and happy. We'll begin Part Two with Chris Ryland. I'll go out on a limb and predict almost exactly what's going to happen. None of this is original, but I'm fairly confident that it's incontrovertible.
Spiritual preparation is the most critical element, clearly.
After that, we should be physically prepared for at least several months of living without external supplies. Thus, you should keep preparing through the first months of the year if you can. I'd also recommend all preparations be made with an eye to taking care of at least another 1-2 families who don't have the means, time, or foresightedness to prepare. The more, the better. John Senior had it exactly right.
