It's August 6th, again
I have some pressing things to attend to today and I'll have to forego my usual rant about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. However, you can read my previous posts on this:

2010: The most destructive use ever of weapons of mass destruction

This year I'll let Noam Chomsky guide us through the Nuclear Weapons Era.
Spoiler alert: It's not pretty.
