A bomb shelter is one of those things not many people think they need, but here are a few facts.

Traitorjoe and his Demonicrat kakistocrats will push WWIII mantra as an excuse to declare martial law.... especially close to election day.

There's a reason they don't want an armed citizenry.

Of those 14,000 odd Russia has 5,900 odd of them- mostly 800 kt yields so they can afford to use multiple warheads per target.

Check out your location for varying warheads, burst heights, multiples, fallout etc. Very complete.

Depends on how many warheads. Putin might be satisfied to place just one on top of D.C.

To survive a nuclear blast, you must be far away from the area of detonation.

This is the key.

NUCLEAR DESIGN LOADS

BELL SYSTEM PRACTICES — AT&TCo Standard

SECTION 760-200-024
Issue 1, August 1977

1. GENERAL

1 .01 This section discusses and provides standards
for nuclear design loads. These standards
are provided for use in the design of new buildings
or building additions that are intended to house
telephone equipment that meets the requirements
of Section 800-610-164, “New Equipment-Building
System (NEBS), General Equipment Requirements.”

http://etler.com/docs/BSP/760/760-200-024_I1.pdf

This was back in the day when the Bell System worked with DoD on preparing the communications network to resist the effects of nuclear war.

However, with the breakup of the Bell System and the proliferation of competitive carriers, I don’t think any of this applies.

Plus, I think the futility of it all finally sank in.

Yes we're gonna have a wingding
A summer smoker underground
It's just a dugout that my dad built
In case the reds decide to push the button down
We've got provisions and lots of beer
The key word is survival on the new frontier

Introduce me to that big blonde
She's got a touch of Tuesday Weld
She's wearing Ambush and a French twist
She's got us wild and she can tell
She loves to limbo, that much is clear
She's got the right dynamic for the new frontier

I learned to stop dreading it and love the bomb. One must maintain his ‘purity of essence at all times’.

Another thing I agree with Putin on.

We were already nuked on January 6th, and the fallout has been devastating.
