Well, I also saw an article in one of the papers in the last couple
days (drat, forget which one at this point, got distracted by election
news) about how Russia is beefing up its missile defenses again, "For

there might be a resurge of the Cold War with them again.

But yah, Pakistan and India pointing nukes at each other has always
been something I've not been happy about.
