Incredible summary Sean,
I-d never heard this option for further bombs.
Just imagining how this could have impacted our planet in the worst of ways: climate wise and the human calamity to follow.
I have always been opposed to the use of the A bomb in Japan. My take is that these weapons should never have been hatched. After all, we are in the end 'just' human... So capable of blowing ourselves into oblivion.
I fancy myself a quasi history person. Especially WW-2. I had no idea! Oh my god.
Thanks for the excellent work.
