    Well, Considering the following,

    From http://www.windsofchange.net/archives/006967.php
    "The electromagnetic fields produced by weapons designed and deployed with the intent to produce EMP have a high likelihood of damaging electrical power systems, electronics, and information systems upon which American society depends. Their effects on dependent systems and infrastructures could be sufficient to qualify as catastrophic to the nation."

    The EMP wouldn't hurt people, it damages electronics. So, it comes down to "How long could you survive without electricity" Myself, being raised in a country/farm type environment, I know how to raise/find my own food, and keep warm without electricity. So, I believe I would be able to survive for a long time. But dont get me wrong, I'd defiantly miss the internet and my computer.

    • I know, we're buying property next to a river now so my relatives said they'd move in with us if that happens. :) I'm curious how the city folk would make it.

    • Yeah, the URL wasn't one you could point and click, so I edited my answer and put it in there so others may get to it easier.

    • I got the URL before, I just didn't feel like reading it right then. It looked kind of cluttered and, well, long LOL.

    • Sorry about that, I didn't know you could put html code into the page. You learn something new every day. *lol* I should have figured on that though.
