On a drilled well, the water stops the minute the power does, a closed fridge holds about 4 hours and a full freezer about 48. Dale counts his house per person, per day, the way the Army's own figures plan it, with 90 days on hand: 207 gallons of water and about 400,000 calories for two. These 20 items came to about $182 at this September's posted prices, and the one that failed at his house cost less than $30.
