Now I know why Slim Pickens rode the A-bomb down. To keep it at the correct temperature.
And I guess we could call these birds the Slim Pickens Chickens.

I saw that on the Science Channel the other night, I'd never heard of it before. Pretty amazing.

Maybe the atomic handgrenade was vetoed, but the Davey Crockett Rocket (with an atomic warhead) was deployed. Your Infantry battalion HQ crypto-clerk was in the loop to deliver any order to use it.
We have Freepers here who are so young they are under the very false impression that all the nukes have always been under tight lock and key, and available to be fired only on the command of the very highest levels.
Bwaaaa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's pretty good.
But the plans to train British seagulls to crap on German periscopes has it beat.

"Pikecrete" -- after the inventor, Geoffrey Pike. Mix of paper pulp and seawater. They overlooked the minor fact that seawater is difficult to freeze...

I know one of the people who launched the firebomb weather balloons at Oregon. A weatherman, just another day at the office for him.
