Having worked with complex machinery engaged in intricate processes for my entire career I know the value of PM-preventative maintenance-and the ability to anticipate catastrophic failures.
At home we have a year’s supply of food, wood stove, natural gas furnace, and a standby generator.
A vegetable garden, and the capacity to harvest fish, fowl, and wild game is what we grew up with.
All this provides security, no matter the craziness of the politicians. (Short of all out war)
You know better than anyone what I talked about in this text. We tend to look at the short term and what has the most obvious influence on our environment, but that leaves us completely unprotected from exceptional phenomena.
You can't be prepared for everything unpredictable, but there are many things that are under our control, and you know that very well :)
I also apply some of your good practices in my home.
Great essay.

Hi there!
