what is the first thing you do if you survived a necular bomb?

I don't think my little tornado survival kit would cut this one !!!

What would be the first thing I'd do ??

Find a clean pair of pants !!!

Then I would ask God if I should be thankful or

take this as a challenge --I wouldn't expect an answer--

To think you can survive is absurd.

In November, 1980, a group of physicians and scientists held a symposium at the University of California in Berkeley. At this symposium Dr. Kosta Tsipis, Professor of Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, stated,

. . . our earth is surrounded by a thin layer or ozone. Ozone is a particular isotope of oxygen that has the lovely property of absorbing much of the ultraviolet rays of the sun. The ultraviolet rays of the sun are the ones that cause skin burns. When you go to the beach and you get sunburned, that's what does it. In addition, the ultraviolet rays of the sun blind eyes that are exposed to them for any period of time. The very fact that we can exist on this earth—that there is a fauna, animals with eyes on this earth—is based on the existence of the ozone layer that filters out most of the ultraviolet rays of the sun and therefore allows us to survive.

What happens when a nuclear weapon explodes is that a very large number of nitrogen oxides are generated by the radiation that flies out from the explosion. As a matter of fact, a one- megaton weapon will generate 10 molecules of nitrogen oxides. These molecules are lifted up together with the fireball, and reach (for a one-megaton weapon) the altitude of say 50, 60, 70 thousand feet, where the ozone is. At that point, these molecules will start eating up the ozone— literally—taking it away from circulation . . . for long periods of time. It is a very complex photochemical process, but we know that it occurs . . . . The National Academy of Sciences felt quite sure to state that if you have exploded . . . in a very short period of time 50% of the weapons that will be available in the arsenals of the Soviet Union and the United States by 1985, this simultaneous explosion will create enough nitrogen oxides to take out 50 to 70% of the ozone layer above the northern hemisphere and 30 to 40% of the ozone layer in the southern hemisphere, because we assume that all of these explosions will take place in the northern hemisphere . . . .

The latest word out of the scientific laboratories is that a 20% depletion of the ozone layer will allow enough ultraviolet light to come to earth that it will blind all unprotected eyes. Now, we can all wear glasses, but the animals and the birds will not wear glasses, and they will all be blinded and they will all eventually die. And this is the largest-scale ecological catastrophe that one can imagine—that all the fauna on the earth will be blinded and eventually die.

I can think of nothing else that is a more massive ecological dislocation — to use a mild word. The entire ecosystem will collapse. Because if we don't have insects, for example, to pollinate the flowers, we won't have fruit . . . . The whole thing collapses, and that is what will happen, most probably, if only 50% of the weapons in the arsenals of the two superpowers in 1985 were to be exploded within a few days in a nuclear war.

If you're within a few miles of a nuclear detonation, you'll be incinerated on the spot!

And if you survive the blast, what does the future promise?

The silent but deadly radiation, either directly or from fallout, in a dose of 400 rems could kill you within two weeks.

Your hair would fall out, your skin would be covered with large ulcers, you would vomit and experience diarrhea and you would die of infection or massive bleeding as your white blood cells and platelets stopped working.

If you have less exposure to this deadly radioactivity, you may develop leukemia in five years.

Hiroshima survivors were thirty times more likely to have this fatal disease than the unexpected population!*

(*Between 1945 and 1963 several hundred thousand soldiers were marched through areas where the Nevada atomic weapons tests were conducted. The rate of leukemia among these men had been 400 times the national average! Shut Down, p. 165, The Book Publishing Co., 1979.)

A smaller amount of exposure sets you up for cancer in twelve or more years.

Even a tiny invisible particle of plutonium is so radioactive that it can cause cancer or alter your genes so that your children may be deformed at birth!

Plutonium has been called "thalidomide forever."

What in the world is a necular bomb? Do you, perhaps, mean nuclear?

Water, food, shelter -- the most primitive of requirements for survival, and the base of Maslow's Heirarchy of Needs.

Ha! Easy one. First bang your head against a wall and see if your were dreaming. If you were, then . . . well keep dreaming. If not, then bad luck. Ok I'll be serious. If you really survived the bomb, then quickly find a indoor underground shelter. Even though the blast passed away, the radioactive . . . um . . . stuff are still in the air and it can kill you too, slowly. Stay in that shelter for at least 5 hours. After the explosion, it's going to rain. It always does.(Why? I don't know. And keep out of that rain coz it contains dirty radioactive . . . stuff, coz it can also kill you.) My dad taught me all this.

If you survive the inital blast than one should take shelter underground fallout basment somewhere where the vents are turned upside down and filtered. This will protect you from fall out . Stay in shelter for 7 days.. (food h20 should be keep in bulk in your home basement) One should have some thing simular to a protective chemical "ish" suit and something to cover their mouth and leave the shelter to relocated to a non contaminated area. One will then go through DCON and be relaesed into a radiation free zone.

OK, since I'm 36 hours downwind from North Korea I've been ready now for about 6 years just for the day they'd set off a nuke.

My preparations are: Iodine pills (off Ebay) to help with radiation sickness. I have enough gas masks with canisters to keep from breathing the radioactive dust. I have purchased 2 rebuilt and calibrated CDV-700 RADIACS off Ebay- the cheapest place I've found.

Paranoid? hardly- I knew the NK's were gonna pull this crap years ago.

Next, I expect them to fire off at least 3 nukes to open the DMZ and head south to restart the Korean War

What is a necular bomb? Have you been listening to Bush mangle the english language again?

you wouldn't be refering to a nuclear bomb would you? (pronounced new clear)

If I survived one, I would immediately think I was invincible as I live in a major target town. We build nuclear submarines.

First of all, I wouldn't want to survive a nuclear bomb because you'd probably suffer from radiation poisoning. And no, I'm not really prepared for anything like that. There's too much now to be concerned with; I'm not going to get stressed out on a nuclear attack.

Visit my 360. I've been following world issues and am concerned. You can type in nuclear fallout shelters, nuclear survival and anything to do with nuclear, survival, bio, chemical. What ever you imagination comes up with and you'll find lots of info. E-mail me if you have other questions about this topic.

I'd kiss my a8se then tuck into a good meal of eggs,bacon & toast as I have made preparations for such an event (nuke shelter) by digging a tunnel under parliament house in canberra

& getting into their shelter.

what u should do is learn to spell !!
