My experience was at the major weapon system level.

You are being so cryptic, I don’t even know what input you are trying to make on this thread, you haven’t said anything.

Thanks.
Wonder if it is photoshopped.

We loose power every now and then where I live, but this was the first time I’ve seen a warning from my computer of a power surge right before the power line breakers blew.

A friend of mine lives around Willis near Conroe and he said there was a lot of “heat” lightening where he was but no problems with the power.
Lightening that far away wouldn’t affect me I wouldn’t think, and lightening would be a sharp spike in power anyway.
On the 30th, when the power went out, I would have thought it was just another power outage like we get sometimes but my computer showed a surge in power.

I have it on good authority from several FReepers that there is NO such thing as EMP it just something that was made up to scare us. It is a fact of life for the military, from both views, from having weapons that cause them, to requiring equipment be protected from them.

If it was an EMP attack, the effect would have been more widespread. This is just speculation. Not necessarily. A Boeing CHAMP can target something as limited as a single building. They have YouTube videos demonstrating the capability.

There have been at least 2 power surges here within the last couple of weeks also.
That's why they sell surge protectors for all your electronics such as computers and TV's.........
They're more common than you think and they vary in their intensity...........

All of the hardware would have had to be replaced if EMPs actually do what they are purported to do.Not necessarily. Lots of stuff will survive. In many cases just a power reset/reboot will revive a system. If there is real harm inflicted with enough power from the EMP, you may have fried components.

Any chance jammers were turned on full because Russian planes were close at hand?

Special Shipping Information: This product may not be available for 1 or 2 day shipping due to federal regulations that require it to ship via ground ship methods only. This product can only be shipped within the 48 contiguous states. The above warning popped up when I looked at Pure Sinewave UPS Systems ... any idea why? Are they a fire hazard?

If they truly false flag an EMP attack, when the economy crashes and the tax dollars dry up, they won’t be able to maintain it for even 6 months.
The big cities will burn, all the troops will be sent there, and the rural states will be on their own. At that point the governors will have to take over, and, what will DC do then?
