La storia e abbastanza strana:

Il Russo che ha evitato una catastrofe nucleare evitando di far partire 
i missili nucleari quando i radar segnalavano un massiccio arrivo di 
missili nucleari Americani, e' diventato un eroe.

L'Americano, pilota di professione, messo davanti ad un radar per puro 
caso, dice di non preoccuparsi vedendo una squadriglia di aerei in 
arrivo, e' diventato lo zimbello mondiale nei secoli dei secoli amen. :)

Se un sistema di difesa dipende esclusivamente da una sola persona io mi 
aspetto che nel 50% dei casi faccia disastri, e la cosa mi preoccupa un 
filino :)

Ciao.
