Still...It is scary to hear how close major war has been in the past from the perfectly predictable failings of mere men and judgement. It's a miracle the world has survived this long in the atomic age.

The wrong message sent. The wrong button pushed. WWIII sparked by mother nature herself, helped along by the inaptitude of men.
Enjoy your Sunday people - it could have been the last for many...
