Our enemies won't need a vast arsenal to destroy us completely; two or three nuclear weapons would send us back to the 1850s.
I read it a couple of weeks ago. Very good book. What’s interesting to note is that if we were hit by a solar flare or EMP, would we be much different than the Haitians? Not according to One Second After, and I tend to agree. I’ve tried to start discussions about that on a couple of threads, but no one could get past the mind set that SOMEONE would come to help. It’s funny, but people can’t seem to comprehend a situation where there is, absolutely, no help coming.

They won't get all the Tridents though.
And being sent back to the 1850s would "destroy us completely" why?
