A warhead is composed of many individual parts the most important
of which is the radioactive component. When we dissarm (wishfull
thinking) we will destroy the individual parts thus destroying the
warhead. There is no need to send missiles to Anartica or space.
The only truely enduring part of the warhead is the radioactive
elements and we today are developing ways to safely dispose such
garbage.
It is scary and will continue to be as long as we let these weapons
continue to exist. Today we are a nation that is not sure at all of
a continued existence, a very damaging attitude to have. Damaging
in the way of slowing productivity and making much of the population
very unhappy with the government.
Some people are dissatisfied with discussing IMPORTANT topics like
disarment ect... They have expressed the desire to talk about the
Beach Boys and what a jerk Watt is. My reply to these people is
bullcookies (bic lighter on). If you want to read about such important
political and philosophical issues read People magazine or the
Enquirer ect.... Just because and issue is rehashed and has not been
resolved for a while doesn't mean that it doesn't warrent thoughtful
discussion. The only way to solve a problem is to adress it. (bic off)
Come on people, I'm not asking you to run for president just to
think about important issues that will effect your life and your
kid's lives. After such carefull consideration post your ideas, not
to be criticized but to be discussed. It seems like spinning your
wheels on ice but if one person thinks about what you said then you
have accomplished something.
