I am 30 miles from a Nuke plant here in Kalamazoo. We would be Post Toasties depending on the prevailing winds

Other than the sincere preference for being vaporized rather than walking wounded, no.

According to Gorbachev, Fivedollargold's city was #3 on the Soviet target list for South Carolina due to a large oil storage facility. Darned impressive that this guy memorized the target list. Even stranger, he answered the question on a visit to our state, given it was formerly ( and probably still is) a State secret.

Yes, impressive. It would be great if it could model terrain too. Volcanic explosions are apparently quite idiosyncratic and I suspect that would be true of a nuclear blast too.
