Remember that any modern vehicles left around will likely be EMP-wiped and be inoperable. But if you can't get out from near ground zero to an upwind area within that 15-20 min. window, then by all means find a shielded place to hunker down for as long as you can. You need concrete, steel or lots of earth shielding. If you have a place with supplies handy, try to hole up for 30 days as most of the immediately lethal gamma radiation will have dissipated to it's half-life by then. So the recommendation is to bail out immediately if you are able, or hole up for awhile underground. Even storm drain pipes would help. Just stay away from radioactive water run-off. And protect your mouth and nose from inhalation and consumption of radioactive dust and water/food at all costs as that'll kill you too. The blast area(ground zero), although sometimes huge, is localized, it's the radioactive fallout that will spread up to hundreds of miles downwind into the jet stream if it's a big one. Know your prevailing wind patterns. Peace |

The magic Teleprompter has been pre-loaded and people will be absolutely amazed at the swift & efficient response from Homeland Security.. how quickly they converted those civilian boxcars, retrofitted make-shift internment centres for the misplaced masses, and how quickly the dead were gathered and respectfully placed in plastic casket liners. Yes the sheople will be so proud to have set aside their constitutional rights in preparation for what comes next.. |
