I'm glad to see we're not so different after all, Pogo. You're right - no-one is responsible for what their ancestors did or didn't do. But we are still burdened with cleaning up the messes they left behind, unfortunately.

I don't think the US, knowing what we know now about nukes, is going to do anything like what we did to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We are more committed to keeping it from being done by us or anybody.

Well ... all the more power to you then, if that's the case. And may this commitment be extended to include ALL forms of warfare and weaponry, someday.
