 So in the TV series Jericho, why did St George get a whole 55 drum of canned sunshine? The rest of the targets are all major population centers. St George is nothing, barely a choke point on I15. |

They hate Mormons?
But also, do you realize they removed nearly all of the Democrats at the same time? |

St George was already super radioactive from the Nevada Test Site.
They just wanted to amplify the already existing radiation to get more buck for the bang. |

Iirc in the TV show weren't they SADM or other single unit warheads that were detonated in moving vans?
Maybe someone panicked in St George or didn't make it to SLC in time for whatever coordinated detonation took place Or.... it's a TV show |

Those were made up as propaganda to scare people. Just color the whole thing red if we're guessing. |

That show was swill go figure people lap it up And pretend it was good. The bar has really been lowered to where being better than rings of power is an achievement worth noting.
Also the dude that plays Maximus can't freaking act. He dragged the show down every time he was on screen. Getting off my soapbox now |

I am not sure counting years will happen with all that radiation and no food with lots of cannibals' running around armed. It's a wipe out event at a minimum. |
