Bearcub...my response was to Ken. Follow his thread and you'll soon agree his posts are replete with hysterical pseudo-facts. If one listens to Ken long enough, one will do as you do.

And you missed no diatribes, because there were none.

I will very gladly read any of the military opinions you mention. Please provide me with links and specifics. I suspect it is, again, another matter of speculative overemphasis on the worst case scenario instead of a careful redressing of the **likelihood ** that such a worst case scenario will actually take place. Yes there are many unknowns, but i don't believe 35-45% of the U.S. population will be "wiped out", as Ken postulates.

Do you really think you are or will be *removed* from the melee, if the worst case scenario does occur? And would you want to live in such a world? A rural foxhole sounds great. Just great.
