Melancholy memories I never had....

60 years ago today, Hiroshima bore the brunt of US anger and engineering when "Little Boy", the first atomic bomb, was dropped on it. I don't want to start some argument with the 3 or 4 people who read this, but....

was it really necessary?

follow the link above, and read about the reasoning, impact, and effects the bombs had on Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and the environment. there's even a link where you can debate the legitimacy of the bombings.

Never Forget.

would a modern example of this be the softwood lumber dispute, specifically the blatant ignoring by the US of NAFTA's ruling?
