I just thought it was interesting, Lynda -- after that thread.  I will start 
using my canner with my spring harvest; if nothing drastic has changed by 
then.  Then if things get real bad real fast, I'll load up the car with some 
jars of meat and head up to the Kaibab --2 adults, a dog , a cat; 42 firearms 
and 200,000 rounds of ammo, and a litter box, a can of tennis balls, 12 
blankets, and however many jars will fit into whatever room is left in a 
Honda 'compact' car ;-)
