I'm too lazy to set a usertitle.
This is one way I like to relax,

I spend a few minutes watching old videos of nuclear explosions from the 50's and 60's.

The next thing you know they will have a montage out there of various nuclear explosions to the tune of some opera or classical music.

Laugh now or forever hold your peas ! :rofl:

To think that a single high altitude nuke could put us all back to the stone age just goes to show that an aggressive American preemptive attack on key positions in Iran and North Korea at minimum, is not out of the question . . even with Obama in th' wheel house. ;)

You have to get these things ON THE PAD or else !

It's weird but I think three stealth bombers made it to Japan over the weekend. What is weird that Obama sent these bad boys there for what? and that they are "stealth bombers" yet it was caught by the news which have been silent about it? because of GM is more important?

Maybe out new Airbus tankers we're put on the backburner and the KC 10s have been retired. :updown: :dunno:

You're kidding ? 3 of 'em ? You're NOT kidding !
They're just having an air show and static display over there, Don, honest !



Aside
Can an ungrounded aircraft be Faraday Caged (shock pulse resistor)


Aside II
Didn't I read last year that the F 117 was retired ? Seems like she was just born yesterday.

Naw, I think that we'd be able to salvage the Bronze Age. Maybe even the Iron Age if we start planning now.
