Where do you put the stockpile so that it will not potentially be wiped out by the hurricane? I personally still do not believe it effected an area bigger than Great Britian and mainly because I find that hard to fathon and have not gone googling to try to verify. Regardless where do you put that stockpile, it has to be somewhere that would not possibly just be wiped out by mother nature but also somewhere that has the means to organize trucks/men to get it out to disaster areas. There would have to be multiple places for stockpiles because what if that hurrican turned and took out Galveston/Houston or what if it took out something in Florida. Now I think if there was some system where food/water was stockpiled in key warehouses throughout the country. Then when it started to get old it would be distributed to homeless shelters then there could be a good possibility for a system to provide for many different types of disasters. But it opens up all sorts of questions such as do the state or federal governments normally provide things to our networks of homeless shelters.
