ETA:
This was supposed to go into the survival forum, I since posted it right there.
Do you survive GTNW?
Where you live/work?
If we ever do end up playing Global Thermal Nuclear War, do you survive the initial attack?
Are you in a place that gets vaporized in the first wave?
Do you have enough food/water to last a month even?
My Wife wants me to build something underground, not only to survive but to stay and live until it's clear.
The property we have is sandwiched between to high ridges, it's blocked
from major cities by higher Mountains, we are no where near a strategic
bombing sight (that I know of)
So we should survive a blast of a known target pretty easily.
If not for our growing family with Children, (my kids kids) I wouldn't
worry so much and to tell you the truth I really don't think we will end
up playing GTNW.
But I was a Boy Scout after all and the motto is still a great thing "Be prepared"
This pic is what she wants to build.
The 2 story on the right side is what she wants, not the silo part.
The ridge behind behind out home is 100 ft high, I wonder if we built
something like that at the base of the ridge and then covered it with
earth and then concrete would it be the same as digging down the 2
stories , yes?
