What most people your self inclued do not realize is that not verybody is going to be at ground zero.

I went to school in New York City. I think that would qualify as ground zero. The "duck and cover" exercises, at that time and place, were nothing more than feel good exercises.

A lot depends on how far away from ground zero you are. New york is a big place and it would take a lot more then one bomb.

If you chose to belive there is no hope and do not want to be prepared so be it. Join the rest of the left and stick your head in the sand.

Do not take responsibity for your self nor your family.
