Gents,

Incredible the efforts and the ressources that went into sustaining the ''Cold War ¨''

Our next door neighbour when i was growing up in the 60's had a nuclear bunker in his basement.

Some good and enduring things came out of it . The Internet for example. It was developped to send fire orders to SAC airfields and missile silos in the event of a nuclear attack.The numeric data signals could be sent through microwave, classic landline and fibre optic line around damaged areas.
