<< Del, the nuclear blasts used for testing above ground are miniscule compared to the power of today's nuclear warheads. >>

I am aware of that.

<< If we had a fullscale worldwide nuclear war. Life as we know it would never be the same. The world will have been made incapable of sustaining human life above ground. >>

I agree that life would not be the same, but it would not be extinguished. If humans were incapable of living above ground, surely they couldn't live underground very long. What would they eat, mushrooms?

By the way, there are bacteria and algae living happily inside the radioactively hot Three Mile Island containment building.
