heck, living where I do, within sight of three volcanoes, within 100 miles of another, within the impact area of the Cascade subduction zone, I don't worry about global scale, I'm more worried about the here and when it happens.
In case you were wondering about what would really happen in case of a huge disaster , watch the news ! Hoarding , hunger , social collapse , in just 24 hours !Imagine this on a planetary scale !
Actually the Japanese are dealing very well with the disaster, no looting, rioting, or large scale social unrest.

Went by REI today to pick up an extra filter for one of the water purifiers. Have NEVER seen REI so busy (couldn't find a parking spot). Guess a lot of other people were stocking up on essentials too.

One thing I see from the Japan situation is that preparedness and stockpiles at home can mean next to nothing when the whole area is leveled and/or if you commute very far from home you may end up with nothing, stranded and not able to reach home.

No need to blow this out of proportion... It's not like it's a widespread incident, my good friend is in Osaka, it's life as usual there.
Looks like now there is a Volcano erupting in Japan, like they need anymore bad news.
