re: #95 jaunte

That manipulative tendency is also on display in thie Freeman Dyson piece for the NYT, in which he states that getting rid of nukes is possible, but only if you have ‘strong nerves.’

I think total elimination is more of a pipe dream now the then it was when Reagan was criticized for suggesting it 30 years ago. He did reduce the warheads my 80% with the start treaty and further reductions are possible, but not getting down to zero IMHO.
At least now, the cold war is over, and reductions by the super powers will be easier.There will be more Wal Marts in China that war heads pretty soon.
