In the 50s, every thing was going to be nuclear. The scariest thing I ever heard of was that Ford had a nuclear powered car on the drawing board.

Those searching for the root cause of modern-day liberalism...I present you "Exhibit A"

(I know, I know...I hate it too when non-political threads in off-topic get hijacked by some idiot who just has to inject his politics...but I couldn't help myself!!!)

1958 was stationed at Ft Lee Va. We all had to take part in eating food that had been treated with Radiation. Was set on the shelf for I think 90 days before cooked. Never saw any reports later on the outcome. It must have been OK. I'm still kicking at 71. (MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE from Birmingham AL)
