Read “One Second After” by Richard Forstchen.

The book is a novel about life in the US after EMP. Not pretty...

I don't think fanatics like Iran and North Korea realize that if an emp attack is successful on the US a lot of the world will starve.

I read it too. Scary stuff. I believe Newt wrote the introduction to the book.

I met the author last Wednesday night at a WWII documentary here in Morganton, NC not far from his home near Asheville. The guy is smart and did a ton of research on the topic with nuclear physicists.

America better wake up.

Scared the he!! out of my wife. She had no idea and is now on a campaign to tell everyone she knows.

As a member of the Army Electronic Proving Grounds in the mid 70's, we were working on stuff to counter EMP effects on communications equipment. I have protected certain spare devices that would make life a bit easier but still it would be like Mad Max.

should also read “Patriots, Surviving...”, Lights Out, Unintended Consequences and Atlas Shrugged. All good reads and very relevant for our times.
