@MrV6sport Factor 30,000,000,000 is probably better than covering your head with a news paper. :)

A couple of questions:
1. What was the context of this post? (What was the theme of the week?) It's so anachronistic, and seems rather naive in light of what we know today.
2. Why would you *want* to survive a nuclear attack?

@260830107 No, not really. The fears of atom bombs being dropped were very real back then, so to calm people down and try to curb paranoia, they made these films so they could sleep at night. Kind of like tornado preparedness videos... Same thing. I live in the heart of tornado alley, I've seen them all.... It makes a person feel better if they think they have some kind of chance for survival, thus, these films. A perfect example of "the Russians are coming" Red Dawn, a 1980's film
