"they would have used them by now."
Yep. this Paul Williams guy (I loved the short little mutant in "Phantom of the Paradise", didn't you?) is pitching a book- it's title has been changed to "Osama's Revenge" or something close to that. He was on Glenn Beck the other day, and really fumbled and dodged when confronted with the illogic of his proposition that a). the nukes have been here since before 9-11, and b). that Bin Laden would opt for high-jackings instead of just lighting the things off.
I think it's all B.S.

I'd say it's worth investigating, but I really don't think that they're here. Also, if they're Soviet-era nukes, they've probably degraded to a point as to be unusable by now. Nukes are hi-maintenance toys.
I don't doubt that Osama would love to nuke us, but as you said, why hijack airplanes when he could just blow up 4 cities? I'll admit that it stays on my mind a bit. If they're for real and they go off on Friday it'll probably kill me... I'll be in Chicago all day. :p
