WELL, I'm CERTAINLY encouraged by this.
Shucks, just a firecracker.

Not to worry.
Nothing to see here.
Just go back to shopping.

2. Hiroshima ~15 kilotons.

Reports so far are about 0.5 kilotons.

You do the math.

3. Jane's Defense Weekly is saying it's a possible failure

I posted a thread in GD - I'm about to leave work so forgive me for not getting.

5. makes you wonder

If perhaps the whole thing was a hoax on North Korea's part. Load up a couple hundred tons of TNT underground and set it off.

6. Oh yeah? Well, yes, I'm shopping. I'm shopping my column around.

7. NBC News said 1 kiloton and Hiroshima

was 12 kilotons, that looks like 1/12th to me. CBS said 1/60, that would be .2 kilotons. I heard another report it was .5 kiloton the way I figure that would be 1/24th. Now I read on here it may have been a dud??????
