It is a work of fiction, but the author wrote it to bring to the forefront this very real possibility. It is chilling and makes you think. Read the new book “One Second After” by William Forstchen.

Most electronics can be sheilded for just a few dollars! What are we waiting for, your guess is as good as mine. I'm sure some things are now sheilded. How about our radios, computers, everyday things. I would gladly pay the added cost rather than end up back in the gave man days as these ebombs even render useless electronics sitting on a shelf somewheere. Your thoughts?

And now more than ever I believe it to be just as much of a threat. What we fail to see is the basic areas of such an e-bomb delivery and how it literally can be placed in a backpack. One merely needs to detonate one of these things 200-300 feet above the ground in a metropolitan area to do damage. That leaves roof-tops, charter planes, window-cleaner rigs on a high-rise, remote toy planes. Need I go on. I do not believe the US Counter-Terrorism infastructure has fully evaluated the risks brought on by these e-bombs and the how they pose a greater danger prior to a bigger attack on the populace.
