Has no one ever heard of a Faraday cage?
What is a faraday cage you ask?
Well it is a box made out of conductive metal, or wire that is grounded to earth. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage)
Now depending on how strong the EMP is you could just make a big box out of some type of wire fence, or better yet a metal shed, and ground it with a copper earth grounding rod driving in to the earth.
Also your car is a metal box so ground it and it just may not get fried. (50/50)
Unless your vehicle is constructed out of plastic, fiberglass, or some other non-metal composite then your fracked.
What about your solar panels, well wrap the tops in tin foil, and make sure they are grounded.
Building a new house wrap it in a layer of metal and ground it. (Get the idea)
The best Faraday cages are made with multi-layers out of wire mesh with very small holes that I have seen.

Just so you know I am not saying the system even works as intended, because it does not.
It is better than most law enforcement systems out there, but bit still sucks.
But the only way to change it is to take a stand and make some noise.
In your case with state police I would hit up the state legislators, State Attorney General, and the Governor’s Office.
But there is a down side.
You have to have solid evidence because the burden of proof is on you, and even with that you may still get screwed.
Also there may be some blow back either way.
I have ended up on police sh1t lists before and it sucks, but it goes away after a while.
Sometimes taking a stand comes with cost you just have to be willing to pay.
But you do have to pick your fights and be smart about it.

Me I have paid my dues taking a stand and still do.
Because I can’t just stand there and say thank you Sir can I please have another.

Although many officers seem to get away with some outrages and possibly illegal behavior there are ways to counter this.
At the City level you have the following options:
1. Most large Cities have an internal affairs office which is works as a peer review and is only accountable to a police commissioner or possibly the chief of police.
                              But they are also sill accountable to the Mayor and city council.
2. Some large cities also have a citizen review board that reviews any suspicious behavior conducted by the police.
3. Some large cities have both an internal investigation and citizen review board.
4. Also the state police agencies usually have some kind of mandate to investigate police departments with a history of misbehavior.
5. Small departments are usually monitored by the mayors and city council.

Bottom line you have avenues to lodge a complaint, just make sure you have all your ducks in a row first, and have solid evidence to back it up.

At the State level:
Many State Law enforcement Agencies are accountable to the Governor, the State Attorney General, and State Legislators.
They will also have some kind of internal review process.

At the Federal level:
All Federal Law Enforcement Agencies are accountable to the Office of the President, and Congress.
They will also have some kind of internal review process.

So my story:
I once got harassed and ticketed illegally while my car was parked at a park on the street swapping a flasher solenoid for my blinkers, and I was an Air force Security Police but not in uniform.
After running up the city chain of command I resorted to writing to my congressman Leon Panetta.
The charges were dropped, and the officers involved were suspended without pay. (Circa 1979)
Thank god or I would have had a really awkward meeting with my commander.

Since we have on going operations in the Horn of Africa and have trouble spots like Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan are fairly close by.
Could it be my Uncle Sam is using a spy sub to cut the cables and attach a device to bug the cable?
I ask this because it is something I would consider if I was the head of the NSA or CIA.
(Not that it makes it right)

But it would be a way to keep tabs on all the data traffic between Africa and that part of the Middle East.

Dude what color is the sky in your world?

Here is a good place to start but it is incomplete:
http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Water_memory

It does not really recount everything or consider all the repeated experiments since then.

In a nutshell.
A paper was published around 1980 in the Journal Nature using the standard chemistry testing protocols still in use today that suggested that water had some form of memory.
The experiments were meant to disprove homeopathy, but suggested that it may in fact be the real deal. (I have no opinions on homeopathy)
The experiment had been recreated around the world resulting in the same data.
The editor in charge of the magazine wanted the experiments rerun with Randi controlling the protocols.
Remember Randi is not a PHD or a chemist.

Randi came up with a new chemistry protocol where no one person knew what they were doing with what samples. Basically it was a completely blind testing protocol, and there have been a few TV shows on this and it was on 60 minutes and NOVA too.
Now they never ran Statistical error analysis on the new protocol so no knew what the error ratereally was.
The experiment came up inconclusive and could not prove that water had memory.

But the cool thing is this that both experiments have been recreated using both protocols several times and came up with the same data results.
Standard protocol’s says water has memory, and Randi’s protocol was inconclusive suggesting that water does not have memory.
Also Randi’s protocol has only been used to recreate this experiment.
So all other chemistry experiments still use the standard protocols today.

So my beef with Randi is that he butted in to a science lab experiment and never followed up with why the data was different and repeatable.
Although these experiments have been repeated a lot since then research in to why was dropped because of the journal bringing in Randi.

My belief is:
The data would suggest that test results are subjective much like the physic experiments done in Princeton Engineering Labs and may give us additional clues towards solving some Quantum Mechanics and M theory unresolved issues.
Then again it could just bring up more interesting questions.

Dude can you miss my point any more?

I realize a lot of people don’t like to read.
So I will repost this for you and make it easy for you.

And the one time he stumbled in to something interesting with the case against Water Memory he created a perfectly blind study without taking in the error factor.
Then did not follow up to find out why the two studies differed and were both repeatable getting the same data along the two different testing technics.

Funny I never thought the use of dousing would work with my scripts, or software/hardware issues.
That is being a Computer engineer and all.

Why yes I do and there are way too many to jot down here.
Just check everything out he does claiming to be a skeptic.
All he does is recreate an event or phenomena and then make an unsubstantiated claim that it was done that way without actually proving it was done that way. (Sorry I want the smoking gun)
All he does is cause doubt and never follows up to prove his point.

And the one time he stumbled in to something interesting with the case against Water Memory he created a perfectly blind study without taking in the error factor.
Then did not follow up to find out why the two studies differed and were both repeatable getting the same data along the two different testing technics.

So think of him as a guy that creates a device on paper that looks like it would logically work, and then sells it to people without ever knowing if it will really work or not. (A coder that never tests his code)
It might work and then again it might not, but when he is done it is no longer his problem and proclaims himself a genius based on his half completed work.

Then again “skeptics” thought the earth was flat because maps were flat and that is all the proof they needed.
That is why I consider skeptics to be just another type of religious zealot.
Because in science you should have both an open curious mind and a skeptical questioning mind too.

I am sorry but the amazing Randi is just another Con Man Media Whore looking for a paycheck.
Let’s face it he has never really disproved a thing, or even followed up his own research that he started.
Now if he ever followed up anything he started that would really be amazing!
