Just the power? Nothing else going on? Interesting, but I would think it would be recoverable. I don't think people would panic until their favorite television show is supposed to be on.

Ladyluck nailed it. An EMP blast is probably the most significant risk alongside a pandemic. Anyone see Contagion? The movie was so-so but the consequences of a significant outbreak were pretty accurate IMO. There's always a financial collapse too...how do you think it would look if the 40% or so on Federal assistance had to suddenly fend for themselves?
For all the bravado in this thread, it's clear that most have no idea what they'd do if the local grocery ran out of food...and there was no gas...and the water stopped to magically appear from the faucet. Even small localized events have shown the shite can hit the fan pretty quickly.
I have about a months worth of food and unlimited water. Anything longer than that and it would start getting real tough real quick. Just in two generations my family went from self sufficient farmers and hunters to people who need the "system" to survive. I think history will show that to have been a big mistake.
