camwynIn the great tradition of fannish commemoration of days that didn't happen, with the added twist of this one not actually having happened yet...
On this day, at 10:47 AM American Eastern Standard Time in 2077, the United States and Red China will be going to atomic war with one another. No one will mark or remember who threw the first volley; no one will care. It will last for two hours, during which time more energy will be released than in all previous conflicts in human history combined, and at the end of that time the world will be a much, much quieter place.
For a while, anyway.
But war... war never changes.
