You're welcome.
In case I wasn't entirely clear before, I was pissed off about things like (again, SPOILERS abound):
USA has been hit by nukes, and the gov't is in total chaos. In response, Russia refuses multiple calls from the acting gov't (both before and after American missiles fly) because the appointment of a new President hasn't happened yet. What?
A nuke is incoming to the USA's east coast, but the fictitious president keeps on delaying leaving for a secure location. What?
The fictitious Russian president knows that there's a substantial chance that his country will not be destroyed if he doesn't launch on warning, and can still destroy the USA even if he's wrong about where the missiles are heading - his subs, and their "dead man's switch" system ensure this - so he launches on warning, thus insuring the destruction of his country. WHAT?
The Secret Service loses the fictitious American president, because their EMP shielded vehicle doesn't shield from EMP. WHAT?
I mean, you have to accept that the entire scenario starts with North Korea launching strikes for no reason at all, assuming that China doesn't have some say over such an action, and Dear Leader knowing that doing such a thing is suicidal. WOT.
Let's hope that the screenplay is better than the book - it really had me on the seat of my pants, until it went totally stupid.
