Don #22:

There is a book that may still be avaiable that came out in the early 1980′s, “The Day After Doomsday.” It was written by a biologist that was doing studies of plant and animal life that happened to be around some of our nuclear missile sites. He attended an antiwar presentation put on by the people who were trying to stop ICBM moderization. He asked what would be a safe place to be in the event of a nuclear war and was told “No where.” Skeptical, he looked into it, found that the answer was BS,and ended up writing a book on how to survive disasters. He included a map showing projected fallout from a Soviet attack and pointed out why it was absurd, providing a more realistic map.

Agimarc #29: That happened in WWII, when the British modified the elevation of a surveillance radar to try to spot V-2′s.

Something else happened in the 70′s relative to ICBMs that surprised the hell out of everyone, even though it was pretty obvious in retrospect, but I better not talk about it.
