I do not know how one (a single) nuke would affect the climate, but AFAIK a
major nuclear shootout (or a major volcano e.g. Yellowstone blowing up) would
produce a nuclear winter, not warming.

I am with Lawrence inasmuch as I do not see what we can do to prevent that
except 'love thay neighbour as thayself'. But for any major disruption of
climate -heating or warming- a pc system is best suited for prevention as
well as fast recovery. 'Design for disaster' has been an important part of
the PDC I took back in 1988.

And Larry, I do not see it as fearmongering, if one stays aware of the
complexity of the situation one lives in, including possible disruptive
events.

Georg
