…by doing nothing.
Seriously.
I’m not sure what’s scarier, that one man was the difference, or that we came that close to an unthinkable war in the 1980s for God’s sake.
Thank goodness all the memories I have of those times include bright colours, Cabbage Patch kids, The Police, Alf, punk rock and Terminators and not my skin peeling off in the wake of a nuclear strike.
Special thanks to EBear for posting a Tumblr link to this fascinating story.
Stay thirsty, my friends!
