Not to mention, if there was a solar flare that was powerful enough to wipe out the WWW for an extended period of time, it would also most likely take down power grids, leaving the world completely in the dark. That means you have to crap in your backyard, hunt for food after all the grocery stores are looted and your supply at home is gone, get water out of local water sources which will probably be contaminated, not be able to use any electric appliances, not be able to use veicles, etc.
If you live in places that get really cold, well you better hope there are trees you can chop down for firewood (if you have an axe), if not you are screwed. If you live in places that get really hot, no matter what you are screwed. Also, mass riots occur, and people would go around killing for supplies. Basically, all hell would break loose, millions and millions of people would die, and life would be pretty damn miserable.
So yeah, like Marvo said, staying in contact with people from DV would be the LAST thing you have to worry about. Oh and if this were to happen, snail mail would not work. Mail men have to use cars which need gas which would not be able to be pumped if there is no electricity.
So pray to god or to allah or to the flying spaghetti monster, that this never happens.
