#let's communicate

Hi guys. I appeal to those who communicate in English. Let's get acquainted? Just drop me message. I am from Russia and want to improve your language skills this way. If my English is not good enough... XD  XD. 

No this isn’t another story of mine.  This is a legit discussion that I hope maybe folks can share headcanons with or ideas.

It’s all about communication in the Fallout universe.  Did they have internet?  Like, could they truly send emails across country or within the communities?  Lots of thoughts here, but I’d like to share some of mine and then open it up for a FRIENDLY discussion.  

First off, I think there is some sort of networking that expands outside of the local areas.  In all the terminals you hack or simply read in any of the games there’s always something hinting towards things expanding further than you might think.  Think about the invoices in all the factories you go in.  I don’t think they’re getting stuff from across the street.  They are talking to other people about items they purchased and are waiting on or shipping back.  

I know there’s obviously intranet as a lot terminals in Vaults have people sending notes back and forth to each other.  This is a given and I’m sure everyone can at least agree on that. 

Given the situation with the way things are, it might be doubtful that servers are still online for actual country wide communication.  Communication is still carried out internally from what I am gathering.  I know ham radios and walkie-talkies are still used.  

So, how would people communicate further?  Do people in the Commonwealth have any clue about people in New Vegas?  Do people in New Vegas know about DC?  ((I’m not worried about what’s in between because I’m sure we can all headcanon that ‘til the day the cows come home))

Remember, just because it’s not shown or mentioned in the game doesn’t mean it’s not possible or doesn’t exist.  Games have serious limitations obviously.  Stay within the structure, however.  Obviously if things in the Fallout universe were like our late 50s and early 60s there can’t be wifi or cell phones. What are your thoughts and ideas about internet?  I’d love to see intelligent theories.  I’d love to see thoughts and things supporting your idea.  Just saying “no” or “yeah” isn’t supporting anything.  This could be fun and interesting and maybe a big help for other people pondering the same thing.

The message is great and all, but I just don't know. The video reminds me of that one time I was a backup dancer in a music video when I was sixteen and I had to suppress the urge to run away throughout the whole shoot.
