Me too. Practicing "Duck and Cover!" at school always left you with a particularly grim schoolday.
On the other side of the Iron Curtain, it wasn't the duck and cover exercises (that never happened, or was before my time), but the nuclear weapon education posters on the walls. Yeah, these did really cheer you up. I also found the AK-47s in the weapon education chamber in our school slightly unnerving. No idea where the older kids got trained on weapon handling if at all, that must have been at higher grades than 7th. -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE
