The the western part of the US is engulfed with radioactive gasses and stuff, then you're all screwed, because unless you all have the smarts not to take the gas masks off at all, then you're, as I said, screwed. You guys will go crazy on behalf of living and talking with the same people every single day, eating and drinking at the risk of recieving inner radiation from radioactive substances in your food, and finding help if something goes wrong.
If this all somehow succeeds and I find a way to get over there, I'll be your guy that runs around with a sniper and a pistol if someone attacks.
