03. if you aim me (unless we've been friended for a while or you have a specific reason) you are creepy and will be deleted.

The capabilities of most weapons are pretty well understood, but when it comes to atomic explosions, the guessing game starts. You are here to participate in an atomic maneuver. This is not a haphazard maneuver; careful planning for it started months back. Watched from a safe distance, this explosion is one of the most beautiful sights ever seen by man.

Alright, let's take a few minutes right now and get acquainted with an A-bomb. Enough exposure to radiation will cause loss of hair. The treatment - if you'd insist - would be symptomatic - a toupee.

What's it like? First of all, one sees a very, very bright light, followed by a shock wave, and then you hear the sound of the blast. And then it seems as though there's a minor earthquake. Then you look up and you see the fireball as it ascends up into the heavens. It's a wonderful sight to behold. Actually, there's no need to be worried as the army has taken all of the necessary precautions to see that you're perfectly safe here.

The radiation level may be high, but if you follow orders you'll be moved out in time to avoid sickness. Finally, if you receive enough gamma radiation to cause sterility, or severe sickness, you'll be killed by the blast, flying debris, or heat, anyway. What makes it so dangerous? You can't see radiation, feel it, smell it, or taste it. So it's beautiful.

Now listen kids: if they're dropping an atomic bomb, it may go off any second now. Whatever happens, I'll give the signal when it's all right to get up. If there's an explosion, we'll wait about a minute after it's all over; then we'll go upstairs, take a look around, and see if it's all right.

This explosion is one of the most beautiful sights ever seen by man, which puts the finger squarely upon one of the main fallacies in the public attitude towards atomic weapons.
