[/quote] EMP would have fried all electronics beyond repair. [/quote] That's what I thought too...once EMP hits, all the stuff is done. [/quote] There are soft EMPS too. I saw a test on some show few years back they did with a rental car....and a military EMP. The car did run again afterward. I thought it would be perma-fried....but this mini-EMP didn't totally destroy the car electronics. ...just a temporary power kill scenario. It was on the Military channel.....that ultimate weapons show. I forgot the guys name who was the host. He was a Seal for 10 years. [/quote] [b]I think I may have seen that to.[/b] But I thought it wasn't EMP it was like a built in kill switch they thought they could put in all cars and if the police etc are in a chase they can just point a remote or w/e and the car shuts off. They've also been developing microwave guns that work to the same effect if you know the cars vulnerable frequency. But those still perma-fry the vehicles computer I think. :scratching: [/quote] See my link on previous page....I already posted it. :cool2: [/quote]

According to this news article from Gismeteo [
link to www.gismeteo.ru
] Around 20:15 local time yesterday a bright flash illuminated the whole city. Shortly afterwards most of the city's power was lost for about two hours. Anything from television sets to street lights. As noticed in the video some car lights and the radio stopped working as well. Some people even reported their room light bulbs changing color through the spectrum and or showing some weird unusual lights.
The power company explained it all as 'A cat that wandered into a power transformer booth and caused a short circuit.' Must have been Nyan-Cat or the power company people are lying. What are your thoughts? It's way too powerful of an EMP blast to be simple lightning.
