6. That was so totally realistic of what could happen.

For years, I have had recurrent dreams of seeing a mushroom cloud and then running to try to find my family.

15. More nuclear videos ----

"Duck and Cover" ---- Just bend down, stick your head between your knees and kiss your ass goodbye. You'll be safe!

Simulation, nuclear attack on Israel (just a simulation) -----

That movie was in fact forbidden in UK, because it would make people more scared than necessary - and was not given a free pass, before the mid 1990s, when the fear for a nuclear was had subsided somehow in Europe. After 1991, when USSR kind of split into 15 new states - the fear of nuclear attack was less prominent in the mind of most people...

But, nuclear weapons is indeed a danger to the world, even today - maybe more today as the possibility of small impoverish country's like DKPR will test the limits - and maybe accidentally go all the way to prove itself - as the young Kim Jung Un seen to be willing to do - could end up in a nuclear exchange between parties

4. I was raised on this fear. In the '60s every tuesday morning at 10:30am

the air-raid sirens in my town would go off and we students would have to "duck and cover" under our desks. Paranoia strikes deep.

13. I remember seeing these films in school in the late 50s and early 60s.

And we would get under the desks for drills. Yeah that would have kept us safe.
