Many people put the advocates of emergency preparedness into the "fringe lunatic" category, associating them with everything from domestic terrorists to religious fanatics. That is not a correct assumption. Emergency preparedness actually means that someone is prepared to meet all kinds of emergencies from sudden unemployment to the arrival of a hurricane. It also covers a wide variety of levels of preparation from a minimal 72 hour preparedness to those who are prepared for a full year of adversity. It isn't easy to be prepared for anything and everything a family might encounter in terms of adversity and emergencies. Being Prepared Without Being A Kook is your handbook to getting started down the emergency preparedness path without feeling like you have signed up for a crash course in how to join the fringe lunatic with easy to follow instructions on figuring out what you really need and why.
