What, ah, would you ssaaave?

In the year twenty twelve, on the eve of December twelfth, the world ended. Or moreso, it will end. Supposedly!!!

If the world begins to destroy itself, many things will happen. One, people will FREAK. Not just a little too. There will be mass hysteria, killings, rapings, shootings, looting, any type of sub-human action possible, will occur. Most humans will do the worst things possible and try to destroy others to survive. Two, the world itself will be in shambles. Buildings crumbled inward, great chasms in the Earth. The globe might as well split in two. Finally, a few select people will deem themselves worthy and take themselves, along with some artifacts with them, to a "better safer" place.

Now what "artifacts" might they take?
I don't know about them, but I think I know about myself.

I would start of with the computer, probably as many as would fit. Second, a knife, and not a baby knife for wimps, but a Commander Cool, Cut-U-Up knife. You can survive almost anything with a good knife. Then food, and the means to grow food, such as heritage seeds. I would bring along my family, and my girlfriend and her family. Her dad could have survived the Holocaust on water alone. He is a survivalist and a great person for this type of situation.
There aren't really any "important" items, like memorabilia, that I would take. They can wait. There will be more memories.
