Good job the Cold War has ended or we might be basking in nuclear winter now. The story goes that the ballistic sub on duty listened out for BBC Radio shows to ensure that the UK is still in one piece and hasn't succumbed to a Ruskie nuclear first strike.

"When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die! You don't know who's children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning: SIT DOWN AND TALK!"
