You Will Survive Doomsday

Excellent find!

I am very curious about nuclear holocaust and this something that I will read when I get a chance.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yep know about that and all as well. I should probably learn to become a mountain man...but I can't grow a bad ass beard.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Here's an interesting article from Dmitry Oriov who lived in the Soviet Union prior to its collapse and saw its economic regrowth. He makes some interesting comparisons between the US and SU in the article and what could possibly happen to the US when its economy collapses.

Relatable to the surviving doomsday as we will survive an economic crash, and a nuclear war might come before or after it.

Seriously, what. Economy? There have been many economically devastating wars in the past.

Oh, but hey, we have ADVANCED computers now, right? They pretty much make error in human judgement a non-issue, and the good people of Happytown can sleep tight. =)

Igonorance is bliss. Don't ruin it for him.

Ah that site is awesome! Great find. I love how they tell you of these horrifying experiences, building it up and up and then they just say, "Nah...it won't happen, at least not for a long time."

Probably my favorites on there are the grey goo theory where nanomachines that create nanofactories out of atoms will just gobble up everything in sight, effectively destorying us.

The other one is the Matrix like existance theory. We're just a computer program or something to that effect. I've always been curious about that, and even had moments where I just let my brain go and try to concieve something like that, only to bring myself to the actual world and fixate on reality. Some of the descriptions I'm sure religious people would attribute to some sort of god.

Still an interesting site and I enjoy looking through it.

Well considering we have survived many near extintions, the odds are that we would survive, though with severly diminished numbers. However, I doubt that we will learn from our mistakes, especially if any records of our history was destroyed in the process.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
