This may not be the purpose of the thread but this is what I see.
That's all good to speculate but it's been done a great number of times I feel, and, quite frankly, I'm getting tired of it...it happened 65 years ago, yet people still feel it's time to debate how it was good/bad to drop the bomb, and what it would have meant not to drop it. The americans dropped the bombs, so there we are.
Interesting that so many people on the Internet knows exactly what would've happened, and exactly how many people would've died if this or that didn't happen...
Great load of historians too!

Damn that quote was messed up, fixed.
Anyway, this discussion pops up every single time a thread about this subject is started...
