The nuke talk has cooled a bit. Glad to be alive in Amerika for another day.

When I was a kid back in the 1980s, I remember our local cable provider blanking all their channels and going to one of those Amiga text screens, CIVIL DEFENSE EMERGENCY, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, REMAIN IN PLACE AND AWAIT INSTRUCTIONS FROM AUTHORITIES all that good stuff. I sat there on the couch, convinced that the Russians had launched the missiles, as a minute went by, then two, then three, then a voice came on.

"Oh. Oops."

Back to normal programming.

(The giveaway, of course, is they never played the tones. Still terrified the poo poo out of me.)
