Ping me when the internet goes down ping

“It’s hard to overstate just how much this would uproot our lives. The lights would of course go out, as would the internet, and any device that draws current from the wall. In places with electronically-controlled municipal water supplies — like most modern cities — toilets and sewage treatment systems would stop working. Heating and air conditioning would fail. Perishable food and medication would be lost. ATMs would be useless. Gas pumps would go offline. And so forth.”

[Kartographer]

Screw the internet. The lives lost will be from:

Toilets and sewage treatment systems and water treatment plants not working. It wasn’t that long ago water borne diseases killed many and it would happen fairly quickly again without those plants.

A new threat? Ben has invoked the LIST...

It very well could be that "You have no chance to survive..." so "make your time."

For when the INTERNET goes down and quits working completely (Sorta like Congress only funner)

I've created a FRee Republic Emergency Ping list (as suggested by mitch5501 ) called:

The "The INTERNET isn't working" ping list:

IF you would like "ON' or "OFF the list FReep Mail me OR ping me in a thread with your request. This will not be a High Volume Ping list (Well at least we hope the INTERNET doesn't quit working frequently)

"So let it be written. So let it be done."
