While tube electronics may survive a nuclear war, it is irrelevant.
There won't be any electricity to run them. The power plants are
controlled by computers. Likewise, having your own generator won't help
either. Many of the new ones are also semiconductor based, and you
won't
be able to get gas to run them since the pumps at the gas station are
run
by electricity which won't be available. Solar cells are also
semiconductors and the inverters used with them also use semiconductors.
So, if there is a WW3, don't count on ANYTHING electrical working.

Seeing as you brought up WW3, for those of you that may not know it, a
new president singlehandedly advanced the Doomsday Clock by 30 seconds
just last week. Heck of a job!

Get off of it. You lost.

Sorry that you totally missed the point. Losing has NOTHING to do with
it. The current president would be just as great of a danger to the
country and world if he were a Democrat. Creating an additional nuclear
threat in today's unstable world was not the smartest thing to do.

You won -- but what did you win?

A vindictive, vengeful, thin-skinned, unstable*, erratic* person with
his finger on the nuclear button. Sounds like a "win" to me.

NOT!

* BTW, these two words were used by the Wall Street Journal when
describing the current president.
