Here is what you need to remember about electromagnetic storms, electromagnetic beams, and electromagnetic pulses, and their effects on your personal electronic devices.

Your microwave is in fact an effective miniature Faraday Cage. Which means that if and when an electromagnetic disturbance hits. All you need to do is put your iPod, backup iPod, and some batteries and flashlights... I guess... if you really want to. Anyway, you take the pod, and those other devices and stick them in a closed, unplugged microwave.
Once the electromagnetic disturbance is over you can take your iPod out of the microwave and be assured that it will be functioning flawlessly, unlike your wrist watch, cell phone, or car.

So don't stop get it, get it
Until your Cheddar's heavy
And watch the way I navigate
Watch me as I gravitate hahaha
