If you want to avoid being hit by a nuke directly then hang around George Bush because he is unlikely to order an 'extremist nuclear attack' on his own person.
Right around 1945... which *coincidentally* is the same time that smoking started to cause lung cancer.... even though about 1 in 2 people smoked before that without getting enough lung cancer for them to bother to measure it

That's actually before 1945 as even Hitler was already a diehard anti-smoking crusader. The Reichstadt imposed the world's most comprehensive suite of tobacco regulations, which included bans on cigarette smoking in workplaces, public buildings, and transit systems. In March 1942, Hitler went so far as to attribute his success to nonsmoking:
"I am convinced that if I had been a smoker, I never would have been able to bear the cares and anxieties which have been a burden to me for so long. Perhaps the German people owe its salvation to that fact."
Your assertion that "1 in 2 people smoked before that without getting enough lung cancer for them to bother to measure it" is further complete bogus.

Tobacco was viewed as one of many threats to the health of the volk, and the research had the personal support of Hitler, a militant non-smoker.
It originally appeared in the German journal Z Krebsforsch in 1943, seven years earlier than the famous paper co-authored by Sir Richard Doll, the leading British cancer epidemiologist who is credited with being the first to establish the deadly effects of tobacco.
The most commonly diagnosed cancer in the U.S. among men is prostate cancer; for women, it’s breast cancer, according to the U.S. federal government’s latest cancer statistics.

We know what Hitler and the American Cancer Society and Osama Bin Laden think. Don't smoke. No problem. Right?

I wonder what Christopher Reeve's widow (a non smoker with lung cancer and activist for stem cell research) thinks about selective and biased medical research efforts?

if a nuke went off in a hurricane wouldnt it just dissipate the hurricane?
Hurricanes are fed by moisture, and the nuclear blast would just take all the weather out of the hurricane....so that would mean no more hurricane right?
