    I think being one of only 55 people left in the world would be worse than the few seconds of suffering you'd have to endure outside the bunker.

    55 people left in the country.

    No bomb would incinerate the entire world population people would be left to die slowly from radiation poisoning and disease

    No, but the collapse of the global economy would mean you'll be living on whatevers around you. It would be chaos for those left over and possibly a futile attempt.

    I'm not a man tho so I'm ok. I'd have my own bunker anyway.

    The end goal is repopulation. Not sexual satisfaction.This should be made clear to whoever is chosen. However bad that sounds, they are better off than the ones left outside.

    Jaysus your beating hard on the it shouldn't be for good looking women drum, worried are you? :pac:

    I've seen the civil defence booklets from back then. After a nuclear attack you were supposed to go outside and sweep the fallout away from your driveway every morning.

    I need to see a copy of that :D.

    Well then it's about bloody time we had a discussion about it.

    Serious question, did you know that was an RTE archive before posting it?

    I am leaving the country for a week due to embarrassment if that answers your question :p

    No you sure won't.

    No you sure won't.

    And? Hardly wrong that I don't want someone else in charge

    It would not be difficult Mein Fuhrer. Nuclear reactors could...I'm sorry, Mr. President.

    Limerick had one under the Customs House, or as the youngsters like to call it - the Hunt museum.

    I presume there were bunkers in Dublin and Cork too?
