In the case of the magnetic compass, it experimentally establishes a known data point each day, so you will always know within a day whenever your prediction should be. If 2,000 A.D. passes by without a cataclysm, the best thing for you to do is to stick with it and maintain your vigil. When the day does come, you will be happy to have advance notice, as short or long as it might be. It was found that in Tiahuanaco the populace was caught entirely off guard, with people doing what they normally do; everyone was caught, completely surprised, in the unbelievable magnitude and suddenness of the maelstrom of a cataclysm’s precipitous onslaught.
If you choose to go all-out with your survival preparation, do decide to indulge in some heavy work in pouring concrete – with walls and ceiling up to four feet thick, with extremely heavy steel reinforcing, on the eastern side of the peak of a top-high mountain.
If you can, pick two, three, or four families who will share your survival desires with you to the extent that they will work with you in preparing for survival of the cataclysm. Be sure to have families who can get along together extremely well; have good, strong teenage children who can be friends; have record-keeping capabilities to keep records of marriages, births and deaths; have family trees for records also. At least one father should be ordained non-denominationally. And BE SURE no one‘s a drinker, smoker, or narcotic user.

Bear it in mind that the odds for survival arc mighty, mighty low. They’re lower than winning the Publishers Clearing House’s ten million dollars. Of course, those odds include the millions upon millions of persons who think the whole concept of cataclysms is a bunch of rot and don’t even try to prepare for survival. Perhaps the best way to look at the odds for survival is to look at how many survive out of those who really prepare for survival. We can’t even estimate that, for who knows from past experience? It all depends upon the best efforts possible in planning and preparing for the cataclysm and post cataclysm – structurally, energy wise, tool wise, medically, spiritually, travel wise, maintenance wise, security wise, communications wise, food supply-wise, and don’t forget the can opener.
What to take to read is vitally important. What tools are necessary to take is of ultimate importance.
If you do not survive, do remember that death is but a stepping stone. Everyone goes through its portals. Further, what a way to go! How many humans ever get to see a cataclysm?
And after you go through those portals, there is a peace that defies description, that passes all understanding.
I wouldn’t be surprised if I see you there. And further, I wouldn’t be surprised if we have a nice talk.
