..............something totally off topic: I just finished reading William Fortschen’s ONE SECOND AFTER, and I’m wondering if any of you have read it. I’ve been really busy lately and have been away from FR, but using Search, I haven’t been able to find any reference to it.

Before I go on to tell you more, I need to know how much, if at all, this has been mentioned on FR.

Haven’t read it and reading the summary and reviews I can understand why. LOL!. I’m not knocking his stating the truth that modern society will not be able to survive a societal collapse, but the notion that one nuclear weapon or EMP device doing the job is absurd. I think reading the blog of the Argentinian man concerning the surviving Argentina during the 90s and 2000s is far better and realistic.

I hadn't heard of it before your post, but I will check it out.

You should write a mini-review of it and post it to the forum.

A high altitude NUDET used for the resulting EMP is no joke.
