In 2001, just three Months before 9/11, a real world exercise tested the emergency response to a bioterror attack on the continental United States. The operation was called "Dark Winter"


Within just a few days, the simulation spiraled out of control. The operation predicted breakdown in essential institutions, civil disorder, and massive civilian casualties

We have created a system so complicated that we no longer understand how to control it. Oil. Power. Shipping. Transport. We live in a complex world. And the more complex it gets, the more fragile it becomes.
