The only rural compounds with bunkers that I'm aware of are in Virginia. (I'm not even talking about the survival bunkers in DC itself, such as the one three blocks from you.) They're evacuation centers for US Govt. employees in DC in case of a disaster. Mt. Weather, Mt. Pony, etc. Public knowledge, no big secret. A contingency plan drawn up by planners working in DC, inside the beltway. Yet you call that kind of thinking "fantasy" and "tinfoil". Think their plans include taking you with them? Wonder why not?

Good for them. If terrorists set off a nuke a couple of blocks from the White House, you think anyone will make it to those bunkers?

The sad truth is, this isn't that Cold War anymore. Those of us living in places like DC or NYC won't even get the 45 minutes or so of warning we would have received if the Soviets had decided to launch their missiles.

Such is life. I'm not going to move to some godforsaken swamp in the wilds of South Carolina because of a fear of a nuclear attack.

Of course their plans don't include me. So what?

You seem to be afraid of a lot of things. Sad, really.
