Emergency Prep.
I was thinking about this while reading and replying to the "personalities" thread.
What is your herp prep for emergencies? I didn't have one and in December 2008 I lost most of my collection due to 9 days without power because of the ice storm that happened here in NY and a large amount of the northeast. I lost everything but a king and a JCP and the JCP was at a friend's house with a generator because I had recently moved 100 miles away and was trying to build a new enclosure for him. Since then I've decided to be more prepared. We have a large amount of heat packs on hand and my new landlord assured us he has a generator for the place should the power go out for a prolonged time (something I looked for when moving.) Fridge be damned I'll hook up a power strip and 20 heat sources to the thing.
I know this is a random topic but just figured I would throw it out there and try to hear other ideas from the community as far as emergency preparedness goes. I don't want to go through that again and i don't want anyone else to, either.
