I realise that the young Adam and Jamie from the early 1980s could have potentially met both Richard Feynman and Edward Teller in their own time. But obviously they haven't.


2023-09-10 Rerun commentary: "Atomic" sounds so much better than "nuclear" as an adjective. It has that homey 1950s feeling that radiation is friendly and nothing to worry about.
