I'll second what WNK said... people (not just in this forum, but everywhere) tend to react to the concept of nuclear war as if that's the end. Probably a lingering notion from the Cold War when a USA-Soviet Union full exchange would mean thousands of missiles flying, massive global fallout, nuclear winter, etc... yeah, that would have pretty much been extinction. In most current-day scenarios (especially regarding N.Korea), most people will be OK, especially in remote locations like Puna.
