[QUOTE="TANSTAAFL, post: 3955951, member: 27098"] Nukes, in spite of the amount of physics needed to calculate the possibility of detonation, geometry of the cores and yield of nuclear reactions are relatively simple devices. I would think a majority in any nations stockpile would go "boom" on command even after decades of storage. We are not talking about a fuel injected, computer controlled, battery started Honda Civic in a garage for 20 years. Also the design is made to account for storage and maintenance over decades. I do worry about every player on the table (or beside it and underneath). It's not just putin playing. You may be right but IMHO not worth the risk, and we as a nation will get nothing out of it except poorer and weaker. [/QUOTE]
