How long until DU is shut down?

68. Valid concern.

More importantly, does everyone have a plan in place to stay in contact with family, etc. should communication go down completely?

Our family has a centralized location that everyone knows to head towards as soon as possible should anything like that happen. We made the plan with the understanding that nothing is perfect, but we didn't want everyone heading in ten different directions. We have also included several friends who are "family", too. Every person has been instructed to bring with them what they can as far as survival items. The issue of course would be everyone safely getting to that location, but it was the best we could come up with.

It makes me sick to even think we have to have that in place, but at this stage of the game, everyone should have a plan.
