Most people don't want to except the EMP thing as a possibility. And when it does happen, everybody will go into shock just like they did with 9/11, if we could watch TV all over the news they would be calling the event that shocked a nation... again. Imagine how much more damage it would do to the county, just by merely shutting down our power. If our army over there is dependant on our technology over here. It would make one big mess of things.
