However, it makes sense to be prepared. I was in the 1989 earthquake in San Francisco and while we were far away from it, power was out for three days. No power means no refrigeration means no food. And with no power, it means you can't go out to the store either.
Think it won't happen to you? If it's not an earthquake or power outage, it will be something you never see coming.... We have a train that runs through town and they a local "propane farm" where they store propane before you buy it. A train caught on fire and shut down the entire town for three or four days - mandatory evacuation with tens of thousand of people having to leave their homes. Chances are your town or city has a propane farm too.

True - I was in Santa Cruz when the 89 quake hit - had been on the Bay Bridge earlier in the morning that day - and Santa Cruz was essentially cut off because both the 1 and 17 highways were in destroyed going in and out of SC. Water, charcoal, food went fast and the peace mellow surfer hippie vibe of Santa Cruz disappeared just as quickly.
