–“Curt might have been exposed to too much Cold War television 😄”–

😉 Wasn’t just television. It wasn’t just science fiction and horror. It’ wasn’t just magazines. It was a daily environment where we were exposed to the threat everywhere. I mean, I remember vividly nuclear drills where we hid under desks, were taught about iodine, the utility of books and boxes of paper in resisting radiation, and how to build a fallout shelter, or how to section off a bit of the basement instead. Heck, the people across the street in my little farm town of 10k people had a bomb shelter built under their basement. I had nightmares about nuclear war – where I had to rescue my wife so we would at least die together – until my 30s.
