It doesn't matter to me what happens to the whole world as long as I have my PC working fine. I would miss the internet for a while I think but with so many people in the world I think if everyone does a bit for it. We can get it back. In fact in a recent research a lot of people tried to bring the internet down (testing for immunity) the maximum anyone can do is to bring it down for a few hrs or maybe couple of days. :D

If the internet went down.
I would wonder why it went down, call my service provider and give them 48hrs to put it back up or they would pay for my next months bill.

If Phones and all communication went down.
I would be like damn and go out side and work on my 46 willys jeep.
its very far from being done.

If all of the above happened.
I would do number one and number two. Its good to get outside kids, I
recomend it once in awhile.

wcgator - your comment made me think. canute24 - you gave me a point. accidents -disasters naturally happen and as fact- the recent Tsunami in the east lately.
but the saying goes that "life - must go on" + "a good ending in a movie - means that all is well".
as life goes on for the victims of the late Tsunami - their life now evolves of building their homes and their defence system -stronger and better. if the internet will fall - milions of people - will find another means of global communications. rest assured - Bill gates is not giving up - on his "domain"yet.
keeping busy in rebuilding for your future - will do good.

if the phones fall down? - sure , there was a time - 140 years ago - without them. so - somebody invented and others -developed it. if no phones functioning - someone will invent a "gadjet" for communication/learning/teaching by remote-controll.

if both communications fail at same time, what then?
Murphy's law sais:"if something can get wrong - it will(get wrong).
in hebrew, we Jews - have a rabi, a Hassidic rabi - Nachman me-Uman sais:"those who believe he(the Lord above)can make something wrong -should believe he(same)can mend it.
I believe that the Lord is not yet bored with whatever people do or fail to do - fact is he's creating millions of people more eachgeneration.

the nature of holding on to your hopeful side - is part of the nature of the lor(something rom me to you).

I survived 12 years without knowing the internet and 16 years without a cellphone so i think I'll manage just fine. I agree with Canute24. If it would really happen it won't take very long for man to restore it or replace it. By then I'll just have to wait and see what these geeks come up with since I'm not too handy when it comes to computers. :D

1. If the internet went down.

I would check my DLINK Router first and then head on down to my DSL Modem. If that DSL Modem is not responding? I will turn it off and on again and if DSL Modem is still not responding I will check the phone line. Plug the phone line into my 56K and dial away. LOL

2. If Phones and all communication went down.

It would never surprise me at all. I would probably start using snail mail to deliever my email.

3.If all of the above happened...

Judgement Day?
