Sooner or later a combination of physical and cyber attack is going to happen and then it's 'lights out'!

I can’t wait for the East Coast cities to lose their A/C. And water. And food. And fuel,

I could go on and on.

It’s a good thing ‘schadenfreude’ isn’t fattening.

If you want to know what kind of damage can be done to a utility system by a hack:

Schadenfreude? Are you a sociopath, or just a moron?

I'm not certain I'm either the moron or the psychopath here, turd.

I apologize. You must think schadenfreude is some kind of very rich German dessert because of my reference to weight gain.

I do feel for you. But there is time to escape.

There are three grids for electrical distribution in the United States. Colorado is part of the western grid. Guess what, they target that grid right, and your lights go out, too. And water, and food, and fuel.

Uh, not mine. I live at 9500 feet in the Southern Rockies and have been preparing for this day for over ten years.

But, thanks for your concern.

I wish you luck, wherever you are. We're all going to need it.

But, the rot is in the big cities. I would like them to disappear.

How about we take the power grid off the net? Literally. Run new comms line for each power generating station. Money well spent.

F U Pussy! It’s precisely the spread of YOUR attitude why most patriots left the cities. “White flight” like scared little bitches instead of taking it back!

I can “escape” any day but I’ll be last man standing if I have to.

Right now I’m across the street from Fraunces Tavern. Where most of the founders of this once great nation plotted to overthrow the British. They stood up to the greatest empire on earth to take this land for Freedom and now you’re telling us to run. *SPIT*

I’d just be happy with it causing Congressional Democrats and RINOs to run home squealing like pigs.

In late Oct. after hurricane Wilma knocked out the power, it was actually nice.

No planes, it was cool, neighbors actually hung out. I loved it. Layed outside and watched shooting stars I never saw before.

But summer is a whole different story. Need ac June to Sept. here or it’s no sleep and complete misery.

Same here, I'm afraid we'd have to head for the mountains because Mr. OG simply cannot stand the heat and I'm only slightly better. Today was 100, yesterday was 100 and the day before that 100.

I understand. I spent the summer of ‘69 at Ft. Benning. Good luck to you.
