This question made me giggle!.!.!.because I do know somebody (s) who thought Armageddon was going to happen on Y2K!.!.!.My Grandfather and Uncle went out and bought 2 brand new generators (they lived next to each other) and cases upon cases of canned foods!. My grandfather has since passed away, and my uncle has been settling his estate!. I told my uncle that I would take the antiques my grandmother willed to me, but I am not taking 50 cans of green beans! I have my limitations! We all laugh about it now, but the older generation: they don't mess around! lolWww@FoodAQ@Com

My dad did!. He bought lots of canned goods and took all his money out of the bank!. He also had like 50 gallon jugs of water and a stock pile of gas and propane bottles for his lantern!. I hate to say he was crazy because he is deceased now, but he did flip out a little over it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, but I still have a couple of rolls of duct tape around after all the anthrax scares and chemical weapon fear monger tactics that the Bush administration tossed around after 9/11 to get approval for their invasion of Iraq!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Anyone who believed that nonsense should have been rounded up and just put into a straight jacket!. How ridiculous!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

all I did was buy a couple of spinning wheels in anticipation of not having yarn to do my crochet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well I was in 3rd grade so I didnt have to worry about that lol!.!.!.so now we just have to worry about 2012!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
