"CAUTION - HERE IS SOME PRACTICAL ADVICE...."

Dear Doves,

The earth is in a period of intense solar flare activity. The sun is emitting massive solar flares at the earth. If one of these solar flares should envelope the earth there will be dire consequences. There would be a period of time, maybe as long as a month, in which there could be no credit card or debit card activity because of the electro-magnetic interruption of electronic communications.
You should keep enough cash on hand, in smaller denominations, so that you can purchase FOOD AND FUEL during this period of time. Even checks would not be accepted as a form of payment because they could not be electronically processed. You may not be able to cash a check at your bank or even draw out any cash from your bank account until the interruption is over.

This is a word for the wise.

YBIC, Bruce Warner
