I never said I would wish that auldrick... it would kind of suck even.
But face it, it would be a lot better for the planet and most of the other life on it...
And with all the stuff laying around living here would be pretty comfi, just take a large van fill a couple of kegs with gas, get some food from stores you pass and look for a nice home in a remote area where you can live for a couple of months till the bodies have rot away.
Then you go and look for other survivors, perhaps rebuild society.
It's not even needed that you loose a lot of the current technology level, enough books explaining how to build your own electricwindmill in the shops arent there?
