< Among the points of comparison: the books' varying predictions on just how bad the changeover will be; potential silver linings ("when the schools and malls close, our young people may discover real life"); ways readers can pester officials, friends and neighbors about the probable apocalypse; and pearls of wisdom ("Stock up on spices, too. Food need not taste bad just because you are operating in disaster mode.").

But with the season nearly over and always behind on our reading, we may postpone reading these titles until next summer.--John Mutter>>

I'm glad I can postpone reading those titles until next summer. I probably won't even get to read them then, I'll be too busy defending my digs from vagrants and whatever other creatures venture my way.
