All of these are very interesting replies. I think the response on the five minutes to showtime scenario we would have if the Russian submarines let fly are realistic - if you only have five minutes, the old adage of "don't run, you'll just die tired" definitely comes into play. Enjoy a good glass of wine, some (remaining) quality time with your loved ones or significant other, and then just go outside and watch the fireworks show.... Give me thirty minutes and I can get a real good head start to "higher ground"!
What got me thinking about this was the news coverage of the Russian missile launch that resulted in an out-of-control missile spinning thorugh the sky over Norway while Nobel Peace prizes were being handed out, and for those of you who are gamers, playing Modern Warfare 2, and having to fight Russian paratroopers trying to occupy "Burger Town" - the whole scene of troops landing in Everytown, USA was thought provoking. The vignette is called "Wolverines!" for all you Red Dawn fans out there.
If The Day does come, sounds like most of you are well-armed and ready!
So, Ullie, if you're "on the air" - which weapons are your "go to" grabs?
Anyone else want to "war game" this one??
