Sounds like self-survival will be for only a short while -- only until one dies from radiation. Maybe Pedialyte will temporarily not make one feel so horrible. In the instance of nuclear war, it seems maybe living a shorter time rather than dragging it out would be preferable. I live in an area which would be a major target. Hopefully, we'll be toast in about as long as it takes to make a slice. Shirley Gaines
Shirley, I have posted the 1983 movie referred to (The Day After) by Annie Jacobsen and the interviewer twice in the last 587 days for anyone interested in watching it. It is a very thoughtful and well done movie, and I, too, watched it when it came out on ABC. The thing about the radiation is the main issue of the movie, and it is grewsome indeed, and, depending on how much nuclear fallout you receive the slower you die. If you want to watch the movie, I will tell you how to find it. The latest Post was perhaps just two or three months ago. But the way death would come to virtually all life, not just human, is unavoidable, so your hope that it is fast will seldom happen unless you happen to be near a bomb bursting, and then you would die instantly, of course. And Annie is right, no one is going to stop it once it begins. It will be the end of civilization barring any kind of unknown interference from form(s) of life that we know nothing about. Thousands of UFOs were witnessed observing the Fukushima meltdown, but we, being of "sound mind" never talk about it. The only other way to survive is for about 6 billion people to stand up and say 'hell no' to the 8 or 9 lunatics who are in charge of their individual countries, and unite in peace unanimously. The leaders will never accept that unless a huge majority of the people demand it, and even then . . . who knows?
