re: atlanta: When/If the $hit Hits the Fan............

Well, if it's catastrophic enough to the point where we have to flee civilization, I'm sure we'll be taking our guns and leaving Atlanta in large packs, looting and taking what we can find along the way.

Eventually we'll find someplace nice enough to settle down. Who knows? We might even stumble upon your neck of the woods. If we like what we see, we'll take it. Probably make a servant out of you if you turn out to actually have some useful talent. If not, you'll be dead in a ditch while we move on to the next area.
