Looks like some good information Marcella. For sure it is 1000% times better then the FReepers who have posted to me that there is no such thing as EMP at all!

I learned a lot from this man. We were on to the danger of EMPs to our weapons systems years ago - 15 years and more - the public just wasn't informed about it. These two men worked in secret due to the importance of their mission to protect our weapons systems. They didn't care about our coffee pots or our TV, they were given the task of making sure we could fight back if attacked. Some of their work was done in New Mexico - does that sound familiar? That is one place where we develop new weapons. Another place was in Huntsville, Alabama, at NASA.

There is so much that goes on in the Department of Defense that we don't know is happening. I was glad to find out our major weapons systems are protected from any type of EMP. Now, if we just had a Commander in Chief who had guts, give me George Bush any day to be that person, however, I would prefer Dick Cheney, I love that guy as he doesn't put up with s-—.

So, in summary: There is no such thing as EMP; The EMP will not kill our electronics; and I am so screwed.
