Of course with a hermit's attitude, you don't have to last forever. You just have to outlast the crazies.
What everyone forgets in these crazy survivalists is what happens to all the nuclear plants in the world with all the fuel pools that need to be kept cool. If this happens everyone and thing on the earth will be dead in 2 months. Its crazy to contmplete this stuff.
JAPAN?? I have mentioned this before.
