More interesting for us Manhattanites is planning escape and defense plans for when the dead walk the earth to feast upon the flesh of the living.
On a related note, do you (or other large city dwellers) have an actual escape plan for a terrorist attack (or flying saucer attack, I guess)? Meaning stuff like, pre-planned rendevous points with family, an in-city-but-out-of-center meeting point with an out-of-city backup? Consciously thought out exit routes, with a backup that excludes public transport (or main roads if you drive)? Note that it can't really be an "actual" plan unless it has been discussed and agreed with the rest of your family, or whomever you hope to escape with. We have a vague one but it's not very well thought out.
Sorry for the sort of depressing poll, but I'm curious.
eta: I was going to edit the "planning ... plans" thing above, but then decided not to bother, I wouldnt' be fooling anyone, and dtb's reaction might be worthwhile.
