  1. Decades ago, I was reading an online debate about a “country boy can survive” the zombie apocalypse. One genius argued they didn’t have a chance. I was thinking that my cousins (who live on farms, grow their own food, grow food for the grocery stores, raise hogs and cows, hunt deer), their only issue is going to be having enough ammo,

  2. When War Games came out, being a child of the 50’s and early 60’s, I knew how to duck and cover.

    My desk in third grade was right next to a 10 ft tall window. I asked the teacher how we’d protect ourselves from flying glass. I got sent to the principle’s office. Principle told me I’d be OK as being under the desk, (which was open on four sides) would protect me.

  7. Heh, speaking of early computer games. My Aunt and Uncle were teachers. Very late 70’s early 80’s? They had an early computer that had a Drag Racing game that was strictly numbers, no graphics. You could pick engine horsepower, wheel base and tire diameter up to certain limits as I recall. I tried beating that thing for two days , frustrated as hell because I could get close but never win, until I tried putting in numbers and then .99%
    Kicked it’s ass after that.
    Dirty bastards had a hidden cheat built in their program so you couldn’t beat it.

  10. Unferth–A farmer friend of mine has that last part covered too….

    Nemo–There ya go, thinking outside the box.

    steves6–And now we know. And the problem is the AI’s don’t have Asimov’s rules installed at the root level.

    Harbinger–Those things are frickin’ nasty!

    WDS–Yep! And thank you for the compliment and you’re welcome!

    Busted–Glad the meme drop comes AFTER the coffee. Probably makes it better. That early game sounds interesting. We just had Pong and Tractors.

    MrHappy–I giggle/snorted with that one. Glad you had a similar reaction.

    Neighbor–Actually two–there was the Meeping Angel too. I try not to stick with just one genre of sci fi.
