Nah. I'm not particularly fond of purple.

I like your nick...I've got some really good images of the MIKE test series saved. The yield was exceeded, however, by the CASTLE test series, and most spectacularly by the Russian TSAR BOMBA (58 Mt).

For aesthetics, the images of the REDWING tests are probably the best.

Yeah, but Mike was first :) Not too Often I run into another nuclear weapon enthusiast. For me it's about the conquest of the human mind and will over an insurmountable problem. I also love that the Trinity shot was hardly in the books when Edward Teller was already thinking about the "super".
