[lafroste]

Are we all going to die yet? Just curious.

[piytar]

No. We are at risk of Obama or Hillary starting a nuclear war with Russia. No joke.

I don’t use twitter, don’t depend on Facebook for news or essential communication and map skills, and haven’t watched television in 8 years.

I’m prolly okay.

[Sasparilla]

The Norks, Russians, China, and Iran are probably more immediate threats for EMP.

No ! But all your electronics "are belong to us- signed, The Borg".
You still get to pay your ObamaCare bill

Turning off the lights, tv, cell phones and Internet for a few months would clean up the gene pool and water the tree of liberty.

It's when the sun has flatulence, and it comes your way in an electronic cloud.
Believe me , you don't want to walk through that cloud !

Hit ‘er with a big enough jolt to magnetize the Iron Range and the Earth will start revolving around Duluth.

It’s also been reported that the Earth’s magnetic field, which shields us from solar wind particles, and other forms of cosmic rays (ie, charged particles from outside the solar system), has weakened by something like 15% over the past decade or so, and may be in the process of totally shutting down before it possibly flips in polarity.

Are you at risk from solar storms?

At risk yes. But we will have heat, water, sanitation and food.

Not much electricity though.

Most of my neighbors will be in the same situation.

When hiding under the bed won't help.

We are overdue /at risk from solar storms/ EMP

We’ll have WW3 well before we have another Carrington Event.

Oh, God, don't give Duluth any MORE ideas.

Jack Hydrazine :" We’ll have WW3 well before we have another Carrington Event."

If its not just the fact that Obama found a spine with only 95 more days to go that he wants to play with the 'Ruskies',
or will it be a Nuke EMP because Kim Jong Un ran out of Wagu beef, caviar and is off his meds ?

As I understand it , the Carrington Event of the mid 1800's stated fires , and burned the telegraph lines.
and that was before any major development or Electrification of cities, right ?
