The allegation of flirting with nuclear weaponry is not an isolated one. Nixon had been open to the use of tactical nuclear weapons in Vietnam as early as 1954 and as president-elect in 1968 had talked of striking "a blow that would both end the war and win it".

Nixon was drunk, and he said, 'Henry, we've got to nuke them.' "

• Why do male ice skaters have routines that are so feminine in execution? After all these years, there should be some kind of movements on ice that would be more masculine-looking। The gymnastics shows have them.
• Could you play sports in space, if you had a spacesuit?
• Can a baby get drunk off of nonalcoholic beer?
