Kathy Harrison refers to herself as the Doris Day of Doom, something which makes me feel that under the nice lady exterior lurks the heart of a horrible warlord. I'm on to you Kathy, don't you forget it.
1. New Madrid fault - electricity, gas, rolling blackouts (2% likelihood)
Of the electricity and power related disaster circumstances observed on the show up to now, an earth quake on the New Madrid fault seems to be by far the most devastating. In contrast to solar related EMP activities, a serious earth quake along New Madrid would be a long term upset in the ability to get power from the grid.
A rolling blackout may be expected, however not the burning of electrical devices. Yet again, taken with a touch of suspicion because of Doomsday Preppers history of simplifying prepper's inspirations. I believe that if you are really worried about getting ready for grid-level electrical issues, it would be prudent to invest in generators or renewable sources of energy.
2. Kathy and Bruce get political
Kathy and Bruce self identify as New England liberals and take a political stance against pistols. This doesn't actually sound right to me. Guns are a tool just like other things. If there was a political party against water purifiers, do you think people will be against acquiring those for planning reasons?
There is a certain amount of courage required for people to be doomsday preppers in the modern-day while facing social norms. It is a radical lack of awareness to believe that one does not need protection in a survival scenario. Living in a rural region, there are causes other than raiders to need a gun. Suppose a bear smelled food in their house? You are not going to get him to go away with common politeness.
3. Growing food and trade
Ignoring the ability to protect it, the thought of stockpiling resources as a way to trade in a post-apocalyptic world is an extremely intelligent thought. Unfortunately, it gives the more obsessed of us a reason to prolong their prepping beyond what they would actually require. Kathy and Bruce have a great idea with regards to honey.
The knowledge that honey doesn't spoil is usually true. Honey has supposedly perhaps been found in edible form in pyramids. Due to the sugar content in it, honey will kill any cellular organism (which includes bacteria) by drawing the moisture out of it through osmosis. It is the similar principle behind salting meat. However, honey can draw water from the air and when it reaches a specific point it could indeed spoil. Of course, suitable storage is essential.
4. Community involvement
The Harrisons' dedication to developing a community is excellent and will serve them properly in a post-apocalyptic situation. The ability to proceed with life as normal in a community is important to maintaining sanity and preventing cabin fever. Needless to say, if they might get over their fear of guns they could have a fearsome squad going on. Kathy could be the head.
