Now that IS a scary thought, and whats worse, is its a very possible scenario too. The sun could pretty much fry most electrical gear if it wanted to. its killed satelites before.

You have to remeber what we'd loose too

T'internet - Gone
Any ECU managed cars - Gone
TV - Gone (Satelite TV *might* survive although receivers wont)
ALl the Chav Stereos - Gone

Sounds good untill
National grid (At that level of interference would be SERIOUSLY damaged)
Phone Networks Gone (Although again Iridium might survive)
Most EMS veichles - gone
Life Support systems and Life saving devices which keep 100's of people alive - Gone.

Its sad, but there would be a death toll for such an event, and it'd be pretty high too.

As a result of the cold war and the fact that an atomic produces EMP most Electronics are EMP Protected to a level to which your nervous system is more likely to be damaged. No point in having computer controlled weapons if the enemy can take them out by 1 atom bomb.

1) Life would be Different but most like there would be no life on the planet (different gravitational forces).

2) Life would be Different

3) No Mud Club, Xbox Live, No Google Earth, and I would be digger out my drafting gear as Land-Rovers CAD would pack up (I could invent the Land-Rover Again)

4)it would help but getting agricultural vehicles and wide loads of the road during rush hour to would be better.
