Negative Space: emergency preparedness
- Dark Thursday’s iPad goes far

Give them this: when everybody else’s cell phones were dying, my iPad and Verizon allowed me to make fun of SDG&E’s twitter feed throughout the night.

- Mini Maglite LED Flashlight•
-
This small flashlight is extremely bright—I almost never use it at normal brightness—and lasts forever on two AA batteries. It can double as a “candle” by taking the top off, and will also repeatedly blink SOS if you need it. It’s main advantage, besides its 31-hour battery life, is that it is very easy to carry around in a pocket during an emergency. It also fits easily in a glove compartment or side storage.
- So what did you do on “dark thursday”?
-
“Funny thing was, it looked like folks were buying a whole lotta beer… and not much anything else! Strange priorities… and like one of my co-workers told me: ‘If last night was the zombie apocalypse, we’d have been dinner…’”
