[ Why worry about EMP when computer hackers could bring down the nation’s power grid? ]
Just the power grid goign down would not be so bad as cars and trucks would still work and people could get the hell out of dodge in time to avoid the welfare zombies...
and EMP and we who live in the cities would be stuck having to deal with the hordes of roving savages...
Re cars & EMP, see info in post 31:
“It would destroy more than just the transformers. It has the potential to fry Integrated Circuit chips, think everything from your digital wristwatch to the electronic fuel injection controls on the 18 wheeler truck that stock your local grocery store. The Starfish detonation messed with communications a 1000 miles away in 1962 that was literally VACUUM TUBE TECH.”
