AI6YR BenLet's punch this puppy into a website. One nuclear armed madman plus large city... Not including fallout. How many millions dead?

Fun little story from back in the day.
We would have air raid drills in junior high in the 60s. One fine day, our teacher said don't bother climbing under the chairs. Between March AFB and Norton on the other side of Box Springs mountain, there was no way any of us would survive. While probably true, that was less comforting than he intended.

I can't remember what the outside circumstances were - a big storm, I think- but I remember a kid in class asking me once if we were going to die.
I answered "Yes, eventually" without even thinking about it, and only after the horrified silence spread through the room did it occur to me that that wasn't the answer they wanted.

I learned quickly. This is my goto phrase now.
