Damn. And if this doesn’t put an electric fear of god shock into all of us then we’re just not paying attention.
I recall that fateful moment during the Cuban missile crisis sitting near the radio with my parents in their patio. I was about ten and mercifully my level of understanding was low plus my parents chose not to describe to any awful extent the grim outcome of nuclear hell. I do though remember the very weird suspense hanging in the air.
Perhaps if more read pieces like yours it might become a thing of overwhelming awareness. Our own critical mass! We could rise up and destroy all nuclear weaponry.
We can dream too…
