The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Nuclear Detonations 1945-1998

Between 1945 and 1998 there were a ton of nuclear explosions.  One was 65 years ago today, at the Japanese City of Nagasaki, which many believe forced the Japanese Emperor to agree that the slaughter had to end, although it also appears he would have encouraged continuation of the war if the Imperial Household was not maintained.

Here is an animated map show that indicates generally where and which nation exploded nuclear weapons.  Not included are Israel (did they do the detonation over the South Atlantic?) and North Korea.

The creator of this presentation is Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto.
