No one notices their addiction to air until the supply is restricted.

    I guess that I am also addicted to space.

    I’m addicted to privacy. I’m suffering withdrawal symptoms at the moment.

    P.S. my father (I’m doing elder care ATM – also for my mother, who is senile) is on oxygen- so that one kind of hit home.

    Re: Gov’t restrictions: I live in Florida, Florida has hurricanes. Hurricanes can take out electric for weeks. My father has a machine that ‘makes (read – sucks out from the surrounding area) oxygen for him. No electric means tanks. Gov’t restrictions LIMIT the mumber of tanks we can have to a 12 hour supply (in my father’s case). Which means if we have a hurricane hit and our suppliers can’t get here in time – he’s been murdered by the gov’t. They swear they can/do drive even in hurricanes – if they do, they are admirable maniacs – and I hope they are telling the truth. BUT.

    Without that restriction, their risks and ours wouldn’t be necessary.

    Kathy,

    Do what you can to stockpile. Maybe welding oxygen. It is not supposed to be good for humans – but in a pinch you do the best you can. If you have to go that route of course keep it to yourself. And get some one – non family to buy the stuff.

    I swear this country is going Soviet.
