[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3556688, member: 77814"]yes, the "catalogs" may be entirely electronic for quick searches. At least the one's up front. The local library has a encyclopedia printout of the catalog - probably incomplete/outdated but better than nothing if you *require* to search that way, not the "index card library" we've known from the past. But if not having access to electronic catalogs is going to stop someone from searching around, well, that's a different problem entirely then I guess they should go back to their cave and scratch some flints together, after they figure out what a flint is and can accidentally find a couple. what is "a [I]long, long[/I] time" ? Don't forget, the equipment will still be there. You just have to recreate the electronics. we understand about how to improve creating smaller circuitry, it's not going to have to be reinvented from scratch over time, but the knowledge is there with the engineers, It will take some time but probably not what "preppers" envision with total dismantlement of everything. All the equipment in front of you isn't going to disappear in a flash of dust. I think it would be a world "mad dash" to "rebuild" everything, as the first one to have it is going to reap $$ the rewards. They'll won't have to "recreate" as they've already created it so they know where they are going. Plus, when you look at all the exceptions of EMP related to it's intensity levels .. I don't think it's going to disrupt totally everything, plus it won't be global.
