I remember seeing the Tom Cruise version of "War of the Worlds" a few years back, but I don't recall it being tied to any kind of national security discussion at the time (or even more recently, either).
But I had a listener suggest EMP as "cause of the day" subject matter last week, and after a bit of investigating, I'll just send you to a 2005 article that I found enlightening (so to speak) on the subject. Plus, it looks like an interesting website in general. Now this "debunking" article was written 5 years ago, so I found it distressing that an "EMP" google search linked to articles written as recently as last fall, still discussing the issue in a scary context. A quick overview of one of those reminded me of a special I caught a bit of recently on The History Channel about the scenarios by which the world could theoretically end in 2012, which of course tied in nicely with another movie that fared quite well at the box office. Now I'll admit to being a conspiracy theorist of sorts (and as a big John Cusak fan, I definitely one day plan on seeing 2012), but on this subject, I'll just leave it up to you to be paranoid...or not.
Cheers! Hope you had a chance to enjoy the "solar power" of this lovely day :)
