[QUOTE="GnometownHero, post: 4253222, member: 47828"] When 9/11 happened my wife worked in downtown KC in AT&T Town Pavilion tower. We lived 10 miles from downtown in metro north KC. I was an environmental contractor on Ft Leavenworth and the kids were in high school 5 blocks from the house. My kids both decided to leave school and run home together when the 2nd plane hit. I had always told them if something bad goes down, go to the basement by the gunsafe in my shop. I just happened to be at the house that morning doing reports instead of working at the Fort 25 miles from the house until later that day. When the first plane hit AT&T NYC had an outage and my wife ran home to work on some stuff til the outage was over and her project could run. She arrived just as 2nd plane hit. One of her AT&T people in NYC called her and said it was war starting. ATT NYC was across the street from the towers. I bet it looked like it. At that timè we figured select nuke targets for communications hub like KC and Whiteman AFB & Ft Leavenworth was imminent. We were already somewhat prepper inclined. The family jumped in and worked together to get the basement ready. We had canned food from our garden and a freezer full of stuff and generator & fuel. We filled up everything with fresh water including a wading pool for the dogs. We had sandbags from our flood rain prep in 93 Missouri river flood. Lots of lumber, poly and duct tape. I had asbestos project gear for work in my truck so I had HEPA respirators and tyvek coveralls. In my gear was a Army combat engineer's book and we prepped the house as sensible as we could if shtf was happening. Thank God it wasnt worse but these days I am glad my daughters had that experience and are now resiliènt onery adult women with skills and weapons. We talk about the Geoinsanity and our obvious government sellout regularly. [/QUOTE]
