Fallout shelters? Please...do some research. By the time the "cloud" reaches us, the rads will be hardly noticable. Ask yourself why the "clouds" of radiation haven't swallowed us during all the tests in New Mexico? And WE test some serious shit, not the low grade the Indians and Paki's screw with..
I'm tired of all the nay sayers on this board spouting off about "nuclear winter" B.S. when they have no idea the short nor long term ramifications to us on native soil. Oh, and you "What about our troops in Paki...Guess what? The Military is a dangerous job, get used to the idea...
Fine. You are entitle to your personal decision. In the meantime I will be stockpiling one week of food and water for my family just in case we have a national contingency. These are crazy times and it doesn't hurt to have some preparations. You might be right about the rads from the Pakistani/Indian fallout, but I rather be prepare and be laughed at than be caught short.
