As fire storms travel, we are twenty miles
from the marshalling yards at Crewe, some twelve
and a half from a tracking station near
Wardle, sixish from British Nuclear
Fuels at Capenhurst and slightly more than
four from an unspecified RAF
electronic complex in Sealand – which
all must have their numbers on at least
one ICBM in a silo
east of the Urals and/or west of
the Appalachians. And so, though there may be
nuclear winter in Hoole, we shall not
see it in our lifetime.
