".2 kilotons is way small for a city buster."

I remember this being reported, dang if I didn't forget all about it. 40 square miles, I wonder what kind of wave that would have made in the Gulf Of Mexico?

The area mentioned is only about 6.2 miles square. Not very big! Not sure how that relates to Nagasaki area and size.

My thinking exactly. Hardly seems possibly that it would destroy 40 square miles of forest.
