Anyways, back on topic!

Those are going to have to be some strong solar storms and buildup to break through the earth's magnetic field enough to damage electronics to that extent.

The main problem with power and comunications knocked out is that the majority of the population needs these things to survive. Without power, the human super-structure(comunication, trade, transport, etc) collapses, resulting in the posibility that the majority of the population could starve.

Here's an example I found a while ago but dont remember from where: Great Britain currently holds about 60million people. However, without the human super-structure, it has the resource capacity to hold only 10 million. Thus, if it is knocked out for extented periods of time(months - years), the majority wont have the resources to survive and possibly die.

If something like this is to happen, history shows that people will tend to rise up against the governments they feel is refusing to help them. So, in a worse case scenario, a world-wide knockout of the human structure would for a period of time would cause a huge toll on the human population's numbers and cause some places to go into anarchy.

Looks like it will be back to survival of the fittest, better stack up on those $800 assault rifles.
