| Just curious guys, if your city is suddenly shaken by an earthquake, and you only got about 10 seconds to save your BOSS pedals, which ones are you gonna save?? I would save my DS-1 s/s, OD-1, CE-2 and CS-3 |

As many as I can... If not probably this order:
DM-2
BD-2 (the Stinkfoot-modded)
DC-3
DD-2
OD-1
PQ-4
But before any pedal I would save my best Strat. |

This is a bit over the top, but since I have almost all my pedals in storage boxes, I'd probably just grab as many boxes as I could carry out in one run.  |

70 pedals won't get you far. If you want to build a shelter the size of an average coffin you will need a lot more pedals. According to the natural death handbook (http://www.globalideasbank.org/natdeath/ndh7.html) the size should be about 6'4" (length) x 22" (width) x 15" (depth). Metric: 1.93 x 0.56 x 0.38 meters.
A compact pedal is 125(l) x 70 (w) x 55(h) mm. Using the Ray's design here we find that we need:
Length (x): 1930/125 = 15.4 pedals -> 17
Width (y) : 560/125 = 4.48 pedals -> 6
Height (z): 380/70 = 5.42 pedals -> 7
1/2 pedal is lost no every corner so we have to add 1 to each of the above numbers. We also need to round up because we wouldn't want to ruin a pedal by cutting it.
Total: (2x + 2y) z = 322 pedals
If you want a bottom and a lid it will cost you extra.

Well I don't think it will happen anytime soon here in Minnesota (although there was a small earthquake in the southern part of the state about 8-10 years ago, and the fact that the mississippi river IS a dormant fault line) I'd have to grab my cat in one arm and my pedalboard in the other and run.
Pedalboard contains:
CS-2
SD-1
Real Tube OD
PH-2
DD-2
CE-2
BF-2
NF-1
DD-3
EH-2
CE-3.
