...would you survive? [Read and take poll]I view this assessment as useful but incomplete, as it doesn't take into account will and willingness. In some cases, we won't know until we're put to the test just what we're capable of doing and just how much of our mental/emotional/moral conditioning we're capable of overcoming.
Would you rescue and take in children in need? Even if you'd only made provisions for your family?
Etc. I'm sure we could think up a thousand more scenarios that would require an on-the-spot moral/intellectual/survival decision and still end up astonished by the one that confronts us.
That's not to put down preparation in terms of hardware, training, supplies--just my observation that we must not neglect the "soft" aspect of things, which just may prove the hardest to prepare for.
