    I agree with Gripper.

    Watch a film made in the 80's called "Threads", that'll really make you think about the futility of surviving a nuclear holocaust.
    I watched this documentary called Mad Max and they seemed to be okay. It was just a bit dustier and Tina Turner was their queen.

    Only problem was their neighbour, mr Humungus. He kept putting his stereo on full blast at ungodly hours.

    The fact that you've got a secret nuclear holocaust survival strategy.

    Oh so if I mentioned the place then it wouldn't be "tragic"?

    I still fail to see the "tragedy".

    Oh and

    About three days, if the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina is anything to go by. All those poor black folks struggling to survive, you'd think the US Government would've done something to help... but of course they were too busy helping those nice clean white folk who pay taxes, vote Republican and do as they're told.

    I'd probably go in the next nearest grocery store and bar it up.

    And I'll bring hot chicks along with good comps for LAN parties.

    Cheers.

    if the goal is to distroy the American Nuke stockpile, I am toast. otherwise, I am safe. If Montana were to become a sovereign nation (don't push us, it could happen, there are some crazies here, http://www.rickross.com/reference/mi...militia74.html ), we would be the 4th largest nuclear superpower in the world. of course far worse would be if yellowstone blew. supposeably it is over due to blow, and the last time it went off, it left six foot of ash in the fossil record in Pennsylvania. If that went off, Bozeman would probably no longer exist. I guess that is better than getting buried in six foot of ash.
    Plan for the worst, hope for the best

    Meh. I'm 6 foot 3 inches, so I'd probably be just about OK.
