My thoughts are that anyone living in, and especially staying in a flood prone area
should have a pfd for each person in their home.

For less than $10 each, a life saving mechanism would be immediately available
in event of a flood.

Anyone else think this might be a god idea?

Yes, as a matter of fact, I was thinking of that very thing last night.

Why in the world would anyone do anything so simple that costs less than $200 billion?

Well, I bought my PFDs through the GSA and they did cost 2 billion each! :D

I'd be thinking Boston Whaler if the water gets that deep.

$10 you say? Hmm... my son's first PFD cost me nearly $50... I must be doing something wrong...

I have to think of whatone of my and KK`s friends said. "I always wear my PFD, It makes it easier to find the body"

For $7 a piece for the orange ones, they should be on every river bank, and in every garage.

For $7, I would think they wouldn't even make the body easier to find....
Best I found was a "SALE" 3 for $50
