I made it a point to learn nuclear survival skills years ago. It's not that hard and can be accomplished with little or nothing that's not in the average home. Certain death zones would be a very tiny part of the country.

Maybe it's the idea of what a all out Nuke war is... To me it is just about every fool with a rocket and a war head setting total hell loose. A winter for 5 to 15 years after it. If that is how it is, ain't nobody gonna get thru that.

I guess I need to have other people definitions of what this lesser nuke war would be.

Sounds like an appropriate time to break out the really good booze, doesnt it?

If a person doesn't believe in a life after death, Yeah, I guess so.

The topic is about doomsday and I never read anywhere in the bible that Jesus said to grab a bottle of booze when the end is near.

He told us to be spititually prepared.

The topic is surviving doomsday. Of course, then it won't be doomsday. But I believe that nuclear war is a big enough deal that we can allow a bit of hyperbole.

I just made a post on the survival book thread that may be of interest.

Worthwhile survival books and other media

I don't think my creator will care a bit if I get hammered one last time, a party to see that great flash of white light. I won't be the one pushing any red button. Who ever does that just might have a bad day visitin' St Pete.

kshe, marmac doesn't like me either. So far he has never once answered any question i ever asked. I just get accused of the wildest things. I think he needs a life. mac
