BTW, humans aren't immune to the emp. I believe that at 5,000 rem the central nervous system blows, and our switch gets abruptly flipped off. I can't remember what the conversion is from eV to rem, but it is not a small number.
Really? Wow, I had no idea. Do you have any scientific references? I would really like to learn a bit about this. Has anyone ever died solely because of EMP?
