Re: do you include neighbors?

Sort of. They have no idea what my family and I get do re prepping, but I give thought to how the neighbours/community can be mobilized if the event ever happens to the betterment of the street. Something of an old school clan mentality perhaps!

Re: What's your all-time most fav book?

This is one of those things that changes when you read another cracking book! I think I would say though: Robinson Crusoe- Daniel Dafoe and Watchers by Dean Koontz. I still re read the Stand by S King ever few years or so when the urge takes. As well as the the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.

Yeah! It was many years ago when I first read it, and I still remember parts of it in very vivid detail! Powerful subject matter well written.

The Hot Zone-Richard Preston

With Ebola being hot news at the moment, I've have been digging through my book cupboard to find 'The Hot Zone' by Richard Preston to re-read it. Worth a read, as written in a rather exciting albeit terrifying manner which makes it easy to read.

As far as 'things' lying around go, I have a few kubotans around the house, should I need one in a hurry say to smash the double glazing for example.
