Keep safe everybody

I do sometimes wonder if that's a big part of what has kept the nukes sitting in their silos all these decades. The elites and the powerful might get a nicer hole in the ground (with ample warning) But it's still just a hole in the ground. That's a common dominator they're not used to living with.

Not going to happen!

But I may watch Threads tonight and buy a one way ticket to Sheffield.

A great show for such a low budget

Just to be on the safe side in my '60's shelter under the reinforced patio, I'm stocking up on this ...along with my Spam and Hamm'shttp://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303942404579361111375345976?mg=ren o64-wsj&url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FSB 10001424052702303942404579361111375345976.html A party animal to the bitter end!

The Russians drive their arsenal around on trucks, do they not?
We sail ours around on Nuclear Subs.

Errr...



What's this then?

Or this:



And if you've missed this...you must be blind:

LOL Yeah, they do too. We don't haul ours around on trucks. We prefer B-52's and Stealth bombers.

Don't underestimate the ability to hide a truck mounted ICBM, Russia is a big place and satellites can't monitor everything.

Dear Cybermat47

I do understand your concern about the things that happens in Ukraine and Crimea. I would however tell you to just relax. I guess you know some people who's old enough to remember the Cuban crisis and I'm sure they will tell you, that this Ukrainian crisis isn't even near the Cuban crisis.

Should this Ukrainian crisis develop out of control, I say the same as some one else wrote, stay with your love ones.

Can it be hidden when prepping the bird to fly?

It doesn't really matter anyhow. If they start pushing launch buttons, nearly all of us will be dead, dead, deadski. Even people in remote areas will soon feel the effects of fallout and nuclear winter. Planet Earth will be a fried cinder for centuries to come. It would be an extinction level event. The astronauts on the ISS would survive a little while longer than the rest of us. Until their supplies of food and water ran out. Might as well step outside and push off toward the atmo.

Nope, but if you haven't found it by then, then it's too late.

You know, when I read your answer, it made me remember a documentary about the life under and after a nuclear Holocaust. I do remember it was send in the end of the 80'ies, when there was so much discussion and demonstration regarding the placement of new type of atomic missile in Europe.

I do remember saying to my friend when we had seen this documentary. Should this ever happen I'm taking a trip to Copenhagen central, so I'm sure to be one of those who goes first and not the rest that dies from a long time of pain and other severe things

That is because saint Ronnie got rid of all yours in exchange for getting rid of some of the Russian ones.

Dear comrade Putin, if nukes do fly please target them all on the District of Columbia. We the people thank you.
