I Can Blow Up My House from Here

Well, not exactly, but I can definitely get the circle to draw over where I work. I'm in a low-rise office that faces the other way, so as long as the terrorists don't field anything really big, I might actually live through it. Ellen's place is an old converted residence a few miles up the road from here. It'd probably get flattened like a swatted bug if they managed to light one off in the 200 KT range.

Cynical? Shocking? Hey, I grew up in the heart of the cold war. From that perspective, it's actually an improvement to talk about a nuke only taking out a single city.
