Summary: On this week's show Ed welcomes Mat Stein back to the program. Mat holds a degree in mechanical engineering from MIT and is the author of two indispensable survival references: "When Technology Fails" and "When Disaster Strikes". On the show, they discuss the devastating and often overlooked after-effects that will result from a wide-scale collapse of the power grid, (including nuclear power plant meltdowns on a massive scale), the dangers of the coming "Solar Maximum", the difference between a solar flare induced collapse and an EMP blast, and the government's unwillingness to safeguard our fragile grid infrastructure. They also talk about the recent troubling actions of the Department of Homeland Security, population reduction plans, the GMO take-over of America's food supply and much more!
