Bloody hell, that was a year ago, and it was a fine thread until solaris fucked it up oh well I'm glad he's gone - hopefuly for good he should've been banned anyway.

skyman8081:
By the way, the world nuclear arsenal is currently NOT enough to be an Extenction Level Event.

The combined yeild of the entire nuclear arsenal is 13 Gigatons, the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was 3.62 x 10^8 MegaTons(362 Teratons).  That didn't even finish the job.

The whole "ZOMG Nulcear War will WIPE out the earth" is bunk.

EDIT: revised figure.

Been looking at Dr Strangelove lately, haven

Laukev7:
The bombs won't destroy the planet, but the radiations will likely kill pretty much everything on it that doesn't live underground.

skyman8081:
In regards to radiation:

Alpha and Beta Radiation are relatively harmless, a newspaper sheet or clothing will stop it.

Gamma radiation is a bit nastier, but nothing that those aprons the doctors give you during X-rays couldn't handle.

If you want to know more, I reccomand you visit the RSICC
