I have written a small book called Shift Happens - It is available on Amazon.. It is about how a normal family living in Australia would deal with the aftermath of the three days of darkness. They deal with it quite well. Fortunately they were holidaying on a vineyard and there were many natural amenities to help them survive.

My personal opinion re the timing of these predictions is that TIME is a man made construct. There is no actual time in other dimensions of consciousness. Therefore what happens when - is not predictable.
