Good vs. Evil

On this 60th year anniversary of the atomic bombs dropped onto Japan, and as nuclear proliferation once again (thanks to the policies of the Bush-war Administration) spreads across the planet, now might be a good time to read the first-hand accounts of survivors of Hiroshima. While reading these stories, remember that these were just tiny, tiny bombs compared to today's nuclear weapons.

I think that someday nuclear energy as a fuel source will become safe and practical, and that we should continue to research the potential applications, especially for something like space tavel. However, nuclear energy's evil twin, nuclear weapons, must be abolished from the face of the planet. It is nothing but pure evil.
