Ms Edisen,
Your posts in this thread is a reflection of history as I understand it as it pertains to the '50s and '60s. I was a teenager in HS when the Cuban Missile Crisis occurred, and I remember it well. The '50s I remember quite well also. But, I'm afraid I don't understand the "idiots" comment or the "duck and cover shit" comment. And, please excuse my language. You mentioned the bombing and destruction of Japan in '45 at the end of WWII. Add Korea and the Cuba situation, along with Indo-China/Vietnam and wonder how it all would end. I do believe we did understand the potential for mass destruction, no matter who "fired first". While living normal lives, we did so with concern, not hysteria.
