2 Slick: Well, as always it was my mistake - I simply mistook your post. You seems to be professional in this area and I wanted to dig truth. Let alone I became angry then decided that internet gave me wrong formula. Oh, well.

Re: OT: Nuclear War???
 

No Slick, you're not becoming a pain. Your information is quite interesting, and more reliable than most since you actually work in the nuclear industry. So please, if you have more knowledge to share, please do!

Re: OT: Nuclear War???
 

Somehow or other you got your quotes messed up. I didn't speculate about the earth's core.

Re: OT: Nuclear War???
 

I know you didn't. That's why I separated the 2 paragraphs with a line.

At one time, a Soviet (notice: Soviet, not Russian) computer error caused an alert as the soviets thought nukes were incoming. The commander of one installation was faced with the decision: launch a nuke in "retaliation" or wait to be sure? The rest is history... since there would BE no more history had he launched a nuke.

Re: OT: Nuclear War???
 

thats a scary thought...... "what if" is dangerous but can be sobering... what if - that commander wasnt in that day (whatever reason) and someone else had been in command? Seems like we assume that there were some very.... close calls but always find out they were closer then we imagined.

[begin sarcasm] Thank God today we are blessed with leaders who wouldn't start a war without absolute certain knowledge of the situation and a good examination of alternatives... [end sarcasm]

Yeah ain't that the one that happened right when that UFO was hovering nearbye?
And no I'm not being sarcastic http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: OT: Nuclear War???
 

No, it was a computer error. Something to do with the software.
