Another area where redundancy suffers is communications. We have become overly dependent on cell phones, almost exclusively, to the point that even home Internet is now going cellular. If the cell network fails there is literally no backup for most people and many functions. What we know about restarting a grid after an outage is that real-time voice and data communications are critical and indispensable. Is there enough redundancy left in the system to provide for this in the upcoming forecast outages? Or will extraordinary interventions be required, such as engaging the military to bring in battlefield communications equipment in order to provide the needed connections and networks necessary to perform the grid restarts? What can Creator tell us?

Another problematic dependency is GPS, the Global Positioning System, which almost everyone relies on today. So much so, that paper maps are disappearing and most young people under forty have no idea how to even read one. If this fails, many people will be utterly lost just a mile or two from their home. Does Creator foresee this as being a problem?
