Explanation: I found this A-bomb survivors testament (link here ) she was only 300 metres from the hypocenter of the explosion. Fantasticaly chilling reading!!!

Personal Disclosure: According to this website ( link here ) a 20Kt A-bomb's fireball is about 180 meters in diameter. As Hiroshima A-Bomb/Little boy was about 14Kt that gives a fireball about 110 to 130 metres across. Expletive deleted thats a little to close for comfort. Its amazing and miraculous she survived at all when On display are the stone steps of the Sumitomo Bank Building with the shadow of a vaporized person -- 42- year-old Mitsuno Ochi -- etched into them.(link here ) (Image here )

Hey redneck a better approach would be to break out the lawn chair, put on your sunglasses, apply a heavy sunscreen, open a beer, put some hot dogs and marshmallows on a stick and position yourself so that you are facing the blast and enjoy the show.


Hmmm, let's see... sunglasses = welding helmet. Sunscreen = 20 coats of lead based paint. Hot dogs and marshmallows will vaporize in about 0.01 seconds, so eat fast.

Seriously, back during the cold war, I was asked several times what I would do if a nuke was coming our way. Everyone else was talking about shelters and outrunning blasts, I always said I would jump in my car, drive as hard as I could toward ground zero, and as soon as I saw the missile, I would get out of my car and see a nuclear blast close up before I died. Never got my chance to try that...

Explanation: I felt it would be a good idea to do a comparison of 1950's fridges as compared to 21st century fridges and I think the comparisons would be as follows...

1950's fridge Vs 21st century fridge

Construction: very robustly solid and heavy Vs robustly solid and light
added protection: white lead based paint Vs white non lead based paint
Fridge capacity: Medium (crouching) Vs Large (standing)
Creature comforts. Food inside fridge Vs Food inside fridge plus Ice
_____________________________________dispensor plus fridge continues
_____________________________________to work without electricity after
_____________________________________Nukes EM pulse and possible
_____________________________________destruction of available
_____________________________________power sources. Also receive
_____________________________________last minute webcasts or send
_____________________________________last minute emails ect before
_____________________________________Nuke explodes!!!

Personal Disclosure: I am interested in which sort of fridge you would prefer to try and survive the Nuke explosion in and why you would make such a choice. I'd definately go the 21st century Fridge as it wins hands down (can't beat the creature comforts) although the massive weight, very robust construction and lead based paints of the 1950's fridge all go to blast
and radiation protection which the 21st Century fridges sorely lack. I'm reminded of the Simpsons episode where Springfield was nuked and only the Simpsons house survives intact with the family unmutated due to all the lead based paints protecting them. LOL!
