Think fast: What would you take?


I live in beautiful Portland, Oregon.
Pandemics, riots, rain, no rain, economic turmoil, comets...
Now we have devastating fires. 
One of my audio buddies is waiting in an evacuation center, awaiting the horrible news that he's lost his home. A couple others are at level 2 ready to abandon their homes. These guys are the best audiophile guys you could ever hope to have around. You probably know them.
With light rain in the forecast (Monday), I feel fairly safe.
But, I have collected one small suit case, just in case. My car will be loaded with camping gear. A photo album. Maybe a friend or 2.
Of the items in my listening room, I know I can't take any equipment. Maybe a couple Lps? No, I could replace those. 
So, I ask you: What would you take?
Hopefully, you'll never be in such a situation.

What an awful situation you find yourself in. I'm so sorry for your plight. So many people are being effected on a daily basis from so many challenges. Suspect it's too late for a controlled burn of everything surrounding your property. Besides, with embers flying everywhere and travelling long distances, difficult to keep off the roof etc... Family heirlooms, photographs, computers and artwork. Everything else can be replace. I hope this passes you, and many others by and that this is a hypothetical for you. Best of luck.

And WTF is MC's problem?
Those of you with guns and hoses...  Keep that hose going until the utilities stop working. Which will happen. Its a FOREST FIRE, schiit tends to not work. And then, you can get your guns out and try to shoot out the flames. GENIUS. MC, some folks might think you are a truly "special" human being. Some, might argue, the reason why your country is so messed up, is because of people who think such as you.
