[ WP ] An EMP just detonated . All forms of technology have stopped working , electricity , cars , satellites , etc . What 's your first move following the collapse of government ?

`` The government has n't collapsed.'' The president of the United states spoke into the tin can at the end of the stringphone. It led to a town crier to whom a stringphone was held near, to lead to town to town. 
 
 `` We are a bureaucracy. Bureaucracy and paranoia go hand in hand. You thought us fools for not upgrading from memos to smartphones. You laughed when we triplicated forms and double stamped each one. Stay at home folks. Help will come. I know you're in shock. Your phones rendered useless, until later, when you can use them as paperweights. It's like being amputated. Stay calm. Talk to your neighbors. Bring out the board games. These were the original MMORPGs.'' 
 
 The president paused to mop his brow with a damp handkerchief. `` But I wo n't lie to you, folks. I do miss the air conditioning. Until next time, this is the POTUS signing off.''
