[Artemisia] A New Discussion - SCA Skills in a Modern Plague

[morgan wolf]

First, a quick apology- my account was "spoofed" at 9:40 am today, those of you 
who have a message from me with no subject that you have not read yet, don't 
read it, just delete it.  Apologies to all for the inconvenience.

Second, regarding Redhawk being blown to bits, as noted in the book "Alas, 
Babylon", due to the large number of missile silos in MT, and Malmstrom AFB 
being a NORAD Command Center (2nd in the chain) in Great Falls specifically, 
Montana (and GF specifically) would be targeted for multiple missile hits- the 
entire state would be a blast crater/fallout zone.

On a related note, does anybody else remember in the mid-80s, when some nuclear 
material was being transported by train across the country and the anti-nuke 
protesters raced the train to every town along the route?  My high school pals 
an I got a huge laugh at the obvious non-residents waving "no nukes in our town" 
signs at a train while an Air Force warhead transport truck and escort drove 
right past them unnoticed.
