Can anyone describe the correct way to seal a house from chemical or biological attack using duct tape and plastic sheets?

Are you in the northern or southern hemisphere?

Northern Hemisphere

Then I think you wrap the house clockwise.

wrap house with plastic and seal the plastic with the duct tape. this is so the windows won't blow out when the trailer on which the house is placed takes it out into the country. let the blue zone cities sort it out on their own. natural selection, darwin called it.

Which way do you wrap it if you live on the equator?

[Nov3]

Wrap the plastic sheet around your head and then wrap the duct tape tightly around your neck. Don't panic. You are pretty safe from inhalation types. If you want to be thoroughwrap your whole body.

from east to west, so that the tremendous wind caused by the earth's rotation won't blow it loose.

What about a large house with about 15 rooms?

Left handed or right handed?

LOLOLOL!

What is the air-speed velocity of the European Sparrow?

You'd wrap that in tinfoil.

[Momaw Nadon]

Right-handed

[dep]

if you can afford a large house with 15 rooms, you can afford a couple days at a nice bed'n'breakfast in a rural area until the smoke clears.

Smoking or non-smoking?

[frodolives]

Laden, or unladen (with cheese)?

[Temple Drake]

lay out plastic sheeting -- aim for 14 ft by 5 ft.
Lie down in the middle.
Have someone one fold the overlapping sections to overlap across your chest.
Then, use plenty of duct tape to seal you snugly into your new, germ-proof body bag.
