Totally amazing, what smart people can do without electrical power, much less electronics or computers.

We think we are so smart. We’re not.

And when the power goes out, and the computers, electronics and electrics disappear, who will be smart enough to accomplish such things?

We will adapt. The human being is a very adaptive creature.

Sure, as a society we have gotten soft and spoiled. But you would be very surprised how quickly most of us will toughen up and get our act together if ever put to the test.

I've seen it for myself in Marine Boot Camp. I personally saw a group of spoiled and soft civilians transform into United States Marines over a 13 week period on Parris Island during 1981.

I’m afraid if the power went out, much of the world would be toast.

Not many craftsmen anymore.
