interesting also, followingthe "Maps" link on the site, to see
Nevada in the lead for atomic experimentation, with 935 Atomic
Blasts, on the record, Kazakhstan (USSR) a far second at 496 tests.
i wonder what this makes of "Learning from Las Vegas", where you
have this kind of paradigmatic (sorry GW but i like the word) change
of order (pre- to post-atomic), and at the same time an artificial
electronic (nuclear-powered?) oasis, SIN-city, that only a Bacchus
would be proud of.
