My wife and I spent our first anniversary in the mountains and in a $36 tent. We loved it and woke up to nearly 2’ of fresh snow - it was cold...we still loved it. About 45 years later, we would be sleeping in our airstream trailer and...we would still love it.
We would certainly miss our fun tech stuff, I LOVE MY SMART PHONE , but we would survive without it all.
Hope and pray for the best, prepare for the worst. That is something my parents and grandparents taught me, a lesson that has never failed me.
We are much more organized than my grandparents were, they used to hide canned food using every square inch of space under their beds and in their closets. LOL
Let us pray that this does not come to pass.
PING!
Cyberattack, but similar to what could happen with a solar storm.
Insulation on wiring isn’t going to do much considering static electricity from the human body will fry a computer chip and everything runs off a chip these days. Soon. Self driving big rigs. Automated factories. Human labor might be appreciated again one day.
Yeah, an emp is more likely. The military did some testing with that back in the 60s I think and cars didn’t make it through. Fried the ignition coils & alternators/generators. It would have to be a real strong solar flare to come close to emp and would have to hit a densely populated are to do a lot of damage.
Meanwhile, express.co.uk is recycling news from 02/2012

As for prepping; The stupidity/evil of man is the #1 thing to prep for (jihad and other stupid human tricks) with somewhat normal natural disasters/weather being 2nd. Fire, Wind, Water. Around here, we can get ice storms that coat everything with 2-3” of ice. Snaps powerlines, large tree branches, coats the ground so that walking is near impossible, never mind driving. The last one was just a few years ago and people were stuck at home with no electric for two weeks in the dead of winter and that was in the city. Rural folks went up to a month with out power but the rural people’s situation didn’t make the news. Most heating systems need electric to run even if they’re LP/NG.

As usual, you reject the scriptures completely.
We are in the prophesied millennium of rest, and at the end of the Sabbath of years that begins with Tishri 1, next year, Yeshua’s bride will be taken out, to commence the ten days of Yehova’s wrath in the bowl judgements.
Interesting times will devastate the uninformed, but Yeshua’s bride will “be not troubled,” for the end is not yet.

please remove me from the ping list
Didn’t happen.
True that ,..thank goodness
But neither did Yellowstone blow up, but the caldera still exists.
Neither did parts of California slip into the ocean, but 'plate subduction' still exists. Etc., etc...
The call was for statistical analysis that a 'mass coronal effect' probability still exists, and statistically we may be overdue.
I, for one, appreciate your search into the archives . Thank you !
LOL, I was just looking at one of Sunkenciv’s collections and I noticed the headline and couldn’t resist!
I hope so. Then I can just make a geothermal steam powered computer from bamboo and a new cell phone from coconuts.
