There's an interesting article about this photograph here: http://www.dailymail...n-Goebbels.html (sorry, it's on the Daily Mail website, I'm afraid!)

^It truly is a horrifying photograph. It shows the pure hatred that these evil bastards had against Jewish people.

I'd say that the scene in the post above it would be more intimidating to witness in person.

Here's a video recording of a very similar explosion. The sheer size of nuclear weapons is awe-inspiring.

Worlds Oldest Recorded Music "The Lost Chord" 1888
Styxhexenhammer666
Just think, everyone involved in making the music and recording it is dead- most likely more than 100 years ago.
And think, in that time period most of the west was just beginning to be settled- Theodore Roosevelt was just a shiny-faced 30 year old at the time.
The worlds' first automobile was only in production for two years- and it would be 30 more before they went into mass production.
"Dracula" had not been written yet- not until 1897.
Britain was an empire stretching from hemisphere to hemisphere- the American Civil War was still part of living memory.
The United States only had 38 states at the time (4 more would be admitted just the next year.)
