It's so lovely being lectured to by a dimwit who doesn't seem capable of understanding the written word. Enjoy your suspension.

If this would've happened Southern California, it would've been totally different. The freeways would've been bumper to bumper of people trying to get outta of L.A., etc. Mass hysteria, looting, etc. It's already stressed out enough. Good thing it didn't happen here.

Interesting observation about what reaction might be in different places, Richard.

At the end of the day, I am just very very thankful that it is not true. The threat of war is always real and all of us have a lot to be thankful for regarding this, not just those in Hawaii.

There were people putting their kids in storm drains.

I shuddered when I saw this on the news last nite. This panic-stricken father potentially exposed his kid to greater harm, possibly fatally, by his actions. There is built up methane gas in storm drain lines from decomposing matter that can either knock you out, or kill quickly. Storm drain catch basins aren't a 2' drop but can be over 10'+. If the kid missed the grab bar / foot rungs, she could have a nasty fall. Never enter a storm drain structure w/o prior checking for presence of gasses with a gas detector. Never just pop a MH cover and jump in thinking it's safe. I speak from experience, having worked many years in muni infrastructures.

Default Something similar occured in 1971

And I will wager we'll have this occur again

I've been through my share of being blown around from rockets. Sometimes sparking the question "incoming?" so you knew whether or not you have time to wipe your ass before retaliating or just go with butt stank until the fight is over. I think I'd at least enjoy a wet wipe to the ass if I got a nuclear warning. I call total bullshit that it was a hap hazard mistake. Also, the best part of this site is not listening to anyone's political opinions. Keep that shit out of here.
