I don't know why I'm just now seeing this reply...I must be further behind than
I thought. And, I've forgotten the discussion.
But, I *think* I was just refuting a claim that millions died in Hiroshima and
Nagasaki. And that we were also at war at the time(which you've alluded to).
I was in no way equating the amount of damage or lives lost.
Eldred
