we have a power cut in liverpool today and something like that shows how reliant we are on technology, I am sort of used to blackouts as I can remember as a kid in the 70s me mum buying candles when the strikes were on, plus there was no central heating if it was freezing we had thick blankets with coats on the bed to keep us warm, jesus I sound like my dad ha, anyways my point is everyone was out in our area, some panicking, alarms going off everywhere and that was just for a hour, just imagine this was a week or two, there would be chaos, we rely to much on technology, do not get me wrong I love the internet were it gives you licence to roam there world and communicate to anyone but I would rather are not dependent on all that type of stuff, and the weird and sad thing about the blackout is you get talking to neighbors who you would not chat to, I think if the 70s blackouts happened now there would be riots and anarchy, it shows how fragile our society is were we know there is a nwo and what they can do to cause mayhem and a simple turning out of the lights could be all it takes, a bit like the tv show revolution.
After 1 week people run out of food and shortly afterwards some people form into gangs and those gangs start going house to house killing the occupants to search for food. After about a month, most everyone is dead.
