Family Emergency Management Action- yes i made that up but its a tradition I started in my home 2 yrs ago for Fathers Day. We go thru the motions of setting up the portable generator to the exterior natural gas outlet and electric inlet and working the breaker panel to accomodate the incoming electric. All done correctly and permitted of course. The wife and kids (adults) do it begrudengly  even tho its fairly easy and actually have a little fun acting stupid (I hope lol) but need to know because I may not be there when needed. Just a suggestion to make sure others in your house can manage w/o you just in case.

Good idea.

I like it.

Remember the rule of "3's"

 

Three minutes without oxygen

Three days without water

Three weeks without food

 

Most people fail to recognize the important steps in survival because they are used to having things provided for them.
