Tim was mostly talking about nuking the District of Columbia. You will note that that is an artificial community filled entirely with politicians and their sycophants. It is sort of like the train that Ayn has blow up in the Rocky Mountain tunnel in Atlas Shrugged. There are no innocents there. (Well a few tourists and Ethiopian immigrants who don't know better but you can't win 'em all.) Note also that he is hoping others will do the deed. He's not volunteering. There will be a few unfortunate explosions in the world over the next few years so I'm sure Tim is just hoping for a beneficial target selection. DCF
