CME, EMP and EmComm

Greetings all,
This article series talks about the likelihood of an EMP attack on our country.  I think a solar coronal mass ejection (CME) event is also predicted to have a very similar effect on our electronics infrastructure. I think any ham serious about preparedness should have a Faraday cage built and handy and keep an eye on solar cycle 24 on spaceweather.com for the next 2-3 years.  Check out the info at the link below.
