Appeal to authority doesn't wash with me, and
Einstein didn't get everything right anyway.

And post-nuclear war, when someone shoots you
in the head with a perfectly working gun because
there weren't enough nukes to take out every
single gun in the planet, just remember that
some guy on "Dos Ain't Dead" said "told you so".

And you can add to that the fact that depending
on how you count, we've already had World War 3
(2 hot, 1 cold), won in our favor already. And
I count the "War on Terror" as World War 4 too.
Yet another ideological war (the same as 3).
But to actually beat "terror" requires a
comprehensive war covering a ridiculous number
of ideologies and even ideas, and at an
individual level, not just a leadership level.

We've been fighting WW4 since before 9/11, but
9/11 forced the issue.

It is still unknown whether anyone will use
nukes during the ongoing WW4 conflict.

I believe there was a similar anomaly in WW1 -
there were new dreadnought ships available but
neither side was willing to deploy them to find
out if theirs were inferior.

BFN. Paul.
