I remember as a young child in the 50's hiding under my school desk...

8. In the Fall of 1962, our Kindergarten class was marched out of our classroom

and told to squat in a line in the hallway against the walls for an inordinate amount of time, not being told what was going on. We understood fire drills and we had to go outside. But what was the point of being in the hallway. Sure, our school was built in 1912 and was brick and concrete. How in the Hell did any government entity believe that being in the basement hallway was going to spare us in any way from a nuclear explosion and/or nuclear fall-out?

Later in about sixth grade, our social studies teacher did a lesson on Russia, The Bomb, etc. Russia was the "bad guy".

And like in Orwell's Animal Farm, here is TSF sitting down at the table, both pigs and farmers, and you can't tell one from the other.
