The Bomb

Rare ground POV picture of the Hiroshima bomb found.

I worry for the days when all the people who lived through this time pass along and the effect and awesome power of the bomb becomes more myth than tangible.  I fear for the rewritten BS history you can hear in any undergraduate class or dorm (and repeated by the likes of Osama Bin Laden) that the bomb wasn't necessary, etc, etc.  I fear this will bring about a time when someone thinks using these things will get them a strategic advantage.
