They have an in-house security team that looks competent, and I'm sure the TV show didn't show everything. The show brought in 2 people to evaluate a few things. The psych person brought up several concerns about cramped quarters, lack of sunlight, etc., and suggested things could last about 3 months before they began to break down. The other person evaluated the air handling (passed), night security (passed), and the approach of a condo owner who was "contaminated" with radiation. He was particularly impressed with the decon procedures, which looked almost by-the-book.Bob Mhttp://about.me/bobmuellernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-55384047611617098022013-12-28T14:41:39.763-06:002013-12-28T14:41:39.763-06:00Well, it's in Kansas, so there aren't any ...Well, it's in Kansas, so there aren't any handy rivers. For that matter, there isn't anything else within miles. I'd rate it as decent, depending on what there was available up top (if they've kept what Uncle Sam had for defenses it should be okay). The problem is what do you do for long-term?<br /><br />Water in Kansas is becoming a real problem. The agriculture there has already used just about all of the glacier water reservoir under the state, and rainfall isn't enough to grow crops reliably. I believe that base isn't under the Ogallala reservoir, and so the well is over 1000' - not easy to pull water out of without a large power-hungry pump. tweellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164718561825615886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-89220673237314010232013-12-28T13:33:23.675-06:002013-12-28T13:33:23.675-06:00Hugh Howey meets Larry Correia.
