Right[edit]

"Military gadfly" is right. I saw the movie The Atomic Cafe recently, and it featured a clip of Mr. Melman talking about the effects of an atomic blast. He stated that a 20 megaton blast would destroy everything withn 2,000 square miles. Considering that is an areathat is over twice the size of the state of Rhode Island. Not only was he a gadfly, but an foolish gadfly. Mushrom 04:13, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That blast radius seems about right. 99.249.2.199 (talk) 12:29, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
