Jeez, and I thought I was overly concerned...

I've been working, as time and money allow, on establishing a pantry. Given that I'm a poor college student, this is largely limited to canned and dry goods. At the high point, I probably had about six months of food. It's dwindling again, as we're moving in four months, and I don't want to have to haul my pantry to the next place. I'd say I have about two months of food at this point. It'll take me a couple months to rebuild the pantry after relocating, but that's acceptable.

I also live with two Eagle scouts who have plenty of backpacking and survival experience between the two of them. They also have a lot of survival gear.

For me, my more immediate concern is loss of power due to a windstorm than a nuclear catastrophe, and so I have planned towards that end. But I do hedge my bets with my pantry.
