You know,there comes a point in the ETS game where the law of diminishing returns kicks in and says "folks things have gotten just bad enough now that surviving it may not be that desirable". Up to a point, I will tolerate a fair amount of abuse, stress and having to do without all the niceties. When the line gets crossed, well, you gotta think what is life gonna be like coming out the other side of the big nasty.

So for surviving the mild to moderate catastrophes, I reckon it is worth the time, effort and money I have put out and will continue to do so, especially if it means getting through it all stands a good chance of elevating my relative position. But if the heat gets turned up too high, even the chicken can't dance that fast, know what I mean Vern?

So while the idea of surviving an EMP strike is plausible, is it really gonna be worth it, considering all the other implications such an event would likely entail?
