The logic behind getting under a table to survive a blast that "flattened buildings in japan" is[I] simply amazing[/I].

Italicized "simply amazing" because people can't seem to tell I'm being sarcastic.

Ugh are you stupid or what?
You will die if the nuke hits very near you. DUH
But if the nuke hits somewhere away from you the blast can pretty much fuck you up so the best thing is to DUCK AND COVER

I remember the radioactive dust thing. Back then people were told that you can just wash off all radioactivity with water in order to be safe
Haha! 8:27-
Gee, it's such a shame those lives couldn't be saved.

It gives people hope, there is no point in the government saying "you're fucked and there's nothing you can do about it if a bomb goes off"
nucular safty? really?
Made me laugh about how naive we had once been.

Blew out many a window
if you're standing up the building you're in may survive but you'll be shredded

"have a good fleshlight at hand, electric lights may go out"
i love how they said that most people recovered from the radiation

You're a socially inept fool. I was being sarcastic.
I guess that's why the guy has 22 "bad spelling" ratings, because people here just can't seem to catch a joke.
Pretty much everything he said is true (except maybe the recovering from radiation sickness part.)
I'd probably do everything he said if there was a cold war II.

You can. It's not the radiation you're washing off, it's the dust containing radiation. Radiation itself doesn't 'stick.'
Basements make great shelters, tins of food are safe from radiation, anything opaque and solid would shield you from the heat and a table would at least shield you from a collapsing ceiling or flying glass. I'm sure a modern safety video would say exactly the same thing.

No, you can't. The radioactive dust you breathe in is a lot more dangerous than the radioactive particles on your skin since alpha-radiation is highly ionizing, but can't penetrate our skin.

I didn't say you wouldn't breathe it in, just that it can be washed off. Besides, you're much more likely to ingest the stuff if you're covered in it.
Well that was very informative and I am now much less fearing of nuclear attacks.

Yes. Also: Washing it off depends on the material. It's all a matter of the surface. If it isn't really flat, you can only do one thing: Get rid of it.
