>>>how exactly do you have a war with nukes

JFK answered that in 1962. His quote about losing control of a nuclear situation: “there is always some bastard who doesn’t get the word”

>>>I remember hearing rumors that a nuclear bomb may have been exploded during the Sino-Soviet border conflict

Supposedly a localized Russian armor probe into China was stopped by a nuclear land mine. Whereupon both sides got serious and resolved the border dispute posthaste.
