We as a species are too stupid to deserve a future.

I've had that site bookmarked for years, but haven't visited it for a while. I wish folks would learn more - as I am sure you do, also - about what a terrible thing that even one nuclear explosion would be, and the shattering aftermath...

I already know more than most people would care to.
stuckincincy Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Trust me. I already know more than most people would care to. 670058[/snapback] My comment wasn't about you. It was about a wider appreciation of the horror of a nuclear explosion.

It was about a wider appreciation of the horror of a nuclear explosion. 670092[/snapback] Oh, I know it wasn't, Cincy. I was just musing out loud and pretty well agreeing with you. The realities of things are pretty well lost on a lot of people, until they happen.

I know that's a lot of tonnage these days, but it seems that a lot of references have dropped off. It is so sad, maddening, that so many do not realize that an ideological war that dwarfs anything previous is around the corner; tinder awaiting spark. Ancient hatreds with modern capabilities...

Ancient hatreds with modern capabilities... 670167[/snapback] Honestly, I wouldn't do that. It doesn't reflect the reality and many people who read it would look at it in the Sci-Fi frame of mind, and dismiss it. Defeats the purpose. I could probably do a half decent job of explaining a 6-8 kt device in Washington, LA or NYC - but I'm just another internet poster with an opinion.

Seems to me that a lot of sites that have projected results - if that's a correct word to use, have gone away. Perhaps I'm not doing a good search. I'd like your opinion of an urban scenario at those Kt levels. I really would - I'm not being a wiseguy...not in the least. Edited April 26, 2006 by stuckincincy

I have a little bit older unclassifed version of the same software that much of the government uses for modeling WMD related target effects. Talk about a video game...

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted May 2, 2006 Posted May 2, 2006 And do you really trust a site that has to proclaimt hat theya re reliable? 681505[/snapback] You do have a point there...but globalsecurity.org is actually reliable, nonetheless.
