I was walking from Chemistry to English class my freshman year in college. Something tells me the poster who keeps pushing denial of the utter devastation and poisons in the atmosphere nuclear exchange would bring about, well that poster is stuck in magic thinking because it feeds the normalcy bias it needs to shut the ‘evil’ out of its psyche. Whne someone is that vested in denial it is best to leave them to their comfy zone ... reasoning based upon a story Jung told regarding a German pediatrician who had come to Jung asking to be trained in his methodologies; a recurring dream the man had clued Jung in as to the needs of the man’s psyche, for protection of his normalcy bias.

I have to tell this story. My apology if is not interesting. Similar to your story yet dissimilar. There was a Professor of physics and had his class. He loved to tweak the students. He once suggested we round up all the nuclear waste and distribute it evenly around the nation into the homes of those living inside the U.S. to be the most viable of storage opinions for nuclear fuel waste. He was kidding but one would not believed the number of students who considered this a viable idea. I laughed for weeks and still smile when I think of that Professor.

FWIW, I wondered when the N Japanese tidal wave, quake and N power plant failure occurred, if we hadn’t actually witnessed a 21st century modern naval engagement which had used nuclear torpedoes or other devices. If a surprise attack occurred in a remote clime and place and the press is as well controlled as it appears to be, we might never be told the truth.
