Danny- You'd probably find the book interesting. There's a lot of various building projects involved with different aspects. A person with a backhoe or a loader could make some of the shelters way faster than the hands on people that Cresson Kearny used for his demonstrations.
What most people assume that is untrue is that 'fallout" will happen or get everywhere. Fallout are materials that have come in contact with the actual nuclear explosions and then come back to earth later. Fallout is mostly produced by ground bursts taking out hardened targets. Most "soft" targets such as what's on an air field, army base, or surface navy base, would be attacked with air bursts for maximum blast radius. The only radioactivity produced by air busts is within the thermal and blast effects diameter so those aspects would kill you first. Sorry, the idea that only very remote people will survive is fantasy. I'm not saying no one would die, it would be the greatest mass casualty event in history, but most Americans would live initially, unless there was an all out air bursts attacks on the cities. And why do that unless they just want to kill people. But you do you, and I'll do me.
Another good read, old but still good, is Bruce Clayton's 1980 Life After Doomsday. I see that copies are still circulating for sale.

I remember enough of my NBC training to know that if fireballs start popping up that all bets are off.
Limited battlefield exchange were talking a Chernobyl or Fukushima event. All out intercontinental retaliation, we're back to the middle ages infrastructure.

No doubt about that but people did live through the Middle Ages,and books were still being copied by hand. Would it be easy? NO!! Would everybody die? NO!!!
I don't want this to happen but if it did, I'm not going to get drunk for 3 days and wait to die. Sorry, I don't plan to end like that.

Am I the only whose 90% sure when have some stuff in the back found that can easily take care of Russias ICBM's ? With our massive black budget and all the various no name defence contractors I'd seriously be surprised if we don't have some stuff that would be able to know our one pretty safely. I mean remember when we knocked that old satellite out with a basic ship fired missile ?

Call me what ever you want , but it's Putin against NATO . It's what it's all about. Notice NATO is being used to control civilians now. Just ask Canada.
I think you might be mistaking NATO for the UN?

Goodness gracious, look at what we are discussing!
We're talking about nuclear war! The end of life as we know it. All over Ukraine?!
Who gives a flip about Ukraine? I sure don't, and I don't think any American needs to die for it, nor any person other than a Ukrainian and a Russian. Let the Ukrainians defend their own borders, and let Ukraine and Russ sort it out. We need to get the heck out of the way.
All this talk about stopping Russia now, because if we don't then Putin is gonna take over all of Europe is just a bunch of talk with no substance. Mind you it was Europe that has invaded Russia twice in the last 200 years, not the other way around. This is insanity what our government is insinuating. Too bad mad, bad, Vlad didn't use some of his demon missiles to hit Davos last week. That would have been a good start to end some of this insanity.
I've never heard of "nuclear winter" being 20 years but I haven't watched your video yet. What are their assumptions, every detonation is a ground burst...?

Not in the sense of a dark cloud of dust in the upper atmosphere and lower temps for decades. That worse case scenario would be the result of multiple as in hundreds of ground bursts throwing massive volumes of debris into the atmosphere. Even then there is conjecture on how long before gravity and rain, some caused by the debris itself, brings it back to earth. BTW, this would also be the worst case fallout scenario as this debris would be irradiated.
Ground bursts are wasteful of energy when an air burst above would achieve the same effective crushing result over a wider area. Ground bursts are more effective on specific hardened targets. Cities and infrastructure are not hardened.
But you can expect darkness as in total collapse of the grid, if not from direct damage then from the cascade to follow.
Oh and one thing airbursts excel at are massive Electromagnetic Pulses, EMP, that'll fry almost all electrical components within reach.

Is there any truth to this Boco, or just more propaganda by the commies in Russia? I wasn't alive then so I don't know what was true or not. Sad state we live in when in order to know the real truth, you have to experience it. Even then, if one falls into the intellectually limited category, they can still be lied to and will believe those lies.
