    Victory awaits the one, that has everything in order - luck we call it
    Defeat is an absolute consequense for the one that have neglected to do the necessary preparations - bad luck we call it

    A small nuclear war, say between Pakistan and India would destroy civilization as we know it. So you folks in the UK and everyone else will be F#@*K just like the Indians and Pakistanis.

    A big nuclear war, say between Russia and the US and the human race will almost certainly become extinct within a few years.

    It's called nuclear winter and if you can't any grow food for ten years that is one hell of a diet. And it gets worst, nuclear winter could be fallowed by nuclear summer. I'm sure the rats and cockroaches will do just fine though.

    Link to Wikipedia article on nuclear winter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_winter



    Fun fact for you preppers; the average surface temperature of earth will be cooler than at the time of the last big ice age when half of North America and almost all of the UK was cover by an sheet of ice up to 3000m thick.

    You preppers won't need a whole lot of bullets as there won't be many people left to fight with, but you will need one huge pile of beans.

    I just hope if someone's going to drop a nuclear bomb they give plenty of warning, as I need to unplug the solar panel connected to the batteries on my boat. A big bright flash could easily boil my batteries...and they're expensive to replace.

    It was 4 minutes when we were glaring at each other across the Berlin Wall

    During the 1960's I and the other children did “duck and cover” drills in school. We were told the Russian missiles would take less than 25 minutes to hit our city (Winnipeg).

    I've got very vague memories of a badge or label that you were supposed to pin on. If it changed colour it meant you were cooked and radio active!!...and they wouldn't let you into any bunker/shelter
