Both are supposed to be decent books (I've only read Crawford though Koppel is on the kindle already), but I've never heard anyone mention Ted Koppel on arf. David's been over there for a while.

    Brian is right, David Crawford posts under the halffast handle. Ted Koppel "borrowed" the Lights Out title.

    BTW, I recently finished Koppel's book, and highly recommend it. It paints a frightening picture of our country's vulnerability and lack of preparedness. If Forstchen and Crawford's books didn't turn you into a prepper, Koppel's should.

    Interesting you should say that. Our daughter told me she go Lights Out & One Second After for her boyfriends b-day. Curious why she explained. he's kind of on board with the whole being prepared, food storage and guns things. BUT......I'm hoping after he reads those books, that would be the push he needed to "get on board"

    Meanwhile, Back to the OP's topic, Already in progress.
