Especially in big cities, dependence on Electricity could be fatal

In the past, I have written how a solar flare as big as the one that hit in the Carrington event that started fires from telegraph stations and shocked operators could bring down most passenger planes in this day and age too. However, Con Edison's experience in Manhattan also shows how dangerous it is to depend upon Elevators and Subways in a blackout where you can easily be trapped, mugged, raped etc. or even die if the weather is hot enough and affects you in an elevator this way.

So, understanding how unhelpful in a blackout dependence upon electricity is might get you to put a little electric flashlight on your key chain for when this happens in the future. Also, investigating how you get out of an elevator trapped without power between floors or how you leave a subway to safety as well. Otherwise, you are just a victim and potential dead meat and ripe for rape or mugging or death. So, having some kind of light with you all the time in elevators or subways and possibly even having a gun or pepper spray or ways to protect yourself might be important.

Where you live or visit during a power outage can save your life. I think people should be more aware of this. Also, during a power outage no credit cards are going to work, only cash.

I had an experience in Buellton a few years ago when a solar flare crashed the ATM system there and no ATM cards or credit cards could be used. Luckily I had enough cash in order to buy gas to get to Santa Barbara. So, Always having at least 20 to 50 to 100 dollars or more in cash is also helpful when there are solar flares or power outages wherever you are too because ATM cards and machines and credit cards just aren't going to work and it's important to be prepared for this potential outcome too.

Also, in a Carrington type of event likely around 600,000 people on passenger planes in the air might die from passenger planes falling out of the sky. Why?

Because only small planes with wire relays to control surfaces don't have electronic assists to control surfaces and they won't work during a Carrington event anymore and 600,000 people might suddenly fall out of the sky in passenger planes during the next Carrington event which is not and IF and ONLY a WHEN?

The solar storm of 1859 (also known as the Carrington Event) was a powerful geomagnetic storm during solar cycle 10 (1855–1867). A solar coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth's magnetosphere and induced one of the largest geomagnetic storms on record, September 1–2, 1859.

Ever wonder how many people are flying in an airplaneright now, at this very minute? Depending on source, about 500,000 people are estimated to be up in the air at any given time. If the average length of a flight is two hours, that means six million people flysomewhere everyday.May 4, 2017
