I have been into this since I was a baby, my mother was with the red cross for 60 years, from knitting for the Canadian army with school friends - for a boy and girl cousin in the Montreal regiment, to her last job at the world trade center, so civil defence taught her all the tricks, in the 60's a bomb shelter full of stuff. Trouble is, like the NATO general said back in the 70's "I'd rather die of a heart attack in old age worrying about a nuclear war, than die a healthy young man in a conventional one". In the mid 90's all the family started stocking up- for Y2K right? Soon after nothing happened, my uncle's tasteless dried food went to the birds, my mother died... of natural causes, and yesterday I found some carefully hand loaded 30-06 that was stored in a place that.... didn't used to be damp.... so tarnished the bullets fell out of the brass. But, Murphy's law would say if we didn't do all this prep, THEN the stuff would hit the fan, and we would kick our own butts....the best prep in my books isn't non gmo seeds and bulgarian surplus ammo crates, but a volumne of 'Fox fire' books, low tech Applanacian... knowledge? Good reading, my set is over 30 years old, stored in a cool dry place, if there is such a thing...

We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
