Slappie 9 #1 July 16, 2004 Today, in 1945, the world first saw the awesome sheer destruction of the atom harnessed by man. In a little placed called “Journada del Muerto” (Journey of Death) near present day Alamogordo, NM man first tested the atomic bomb. And your quote for the day is: “Nature is neutral. Man has wrested from nature the power to make the world a desert or to make the deserts bloom. There is no evil in the atom; only in men's souls.“ - Adlai Ewing Stevenson, 1900 - 1965 "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaoskitty 0 #4 July 16, 2004 Interesting fact: my grandfather was the meteorologist who gave the go-ahead detonate and test the A-bomb. (then he got out of the way, I assume..) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
