Default Re: For "Survivors" Eyes Only

Alexandra,

The population push from the cities to the hinterlands will be pretty traumatic - and PTB focus of control will be on the riots in the cities, and the violent exodus out of them. That, however, is a general statement. The 80-100 miles surrounding a city like New York will definately be different from the 80-100 miles surrounding, say, St. Louis, Detroit, or San Francisco. I am from the trans-Mississippi west, and I know of places that few scumbags will ever journey to - it would be too much work to get to them. I'm more worried about my government than I am any group of gang-bangers or bikers.

It is possible to disguise heat signatures - that ability is what made the Vietnamese so formidable. We had satellites in the sky then that could read heat, and it didn't make a difference. We know only a fraction of thier secrets today. There is also "heat background noise" that will work to hiders's advantage.

Will they really care about a few hundred people out in the woods? Will communities that pose them no threat be worth the effort?
