By then you have lost most of your mideast oil. Then you can nuke China and eliminate the thingies that you buy at Walmart. Then nuke Russia for sending over a barrage and destroying our major cities.

Oh shucks, I better get out and finish digging my nuclear fall-out shelter in. Life is so great since we started the war on terror using nuclear technology. That Saddam insane sure started something when he started playing around with that microwave oven and the CIA saw him irradiate the cat.

When I was a kid, my brother and I cut through a neighbor's yard on the way home from school and found a curious looking hatch cover; in fact, my brother tripped over it. Otherwise, we never would have noticed it. Turns out that the former owner of the property had had a bomb shelter installed around the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Being curious kids, we looked inside and, aside from the awful stench of years of mildew and tarnished metal, it was the last place on Earth that I'd ever want to be. Ever. As far as I'm concerned, if there's a nuclear war and I can't be on a sailboat off the coast of New Zealand, I'm setting up a lawnchair at ground zero, baby. It's the only way to fry.
