@wellerstein Have u ever made a nukemap showing what Hiroshima fallout would have looked like as a surface burst?

@GaryMWatson I don't know the exact wind speed/direction for the day, but I believe that's the general direction
@GaryMWatson (Based on where the little residual radiation that there was was found)

@wellerstein Thanks again. Do you suppose the scientists downplayed the horror of surface burst so the pols wouldn't order it? -
@GaryMWatson I've never seen anything that suggested that; they chose an airburst to maximize the blast radius (http://blog.nuclearsecrecy.com/2013/12/06/trouble-airbursts/ …) -
@wellerstein Oh hey that's cool I hadn't noticed that you had a blog with comments. Will read it.

@wellerstein Scientists advised air burst would cause "maximum damage" which is true but not the whole picture.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
