Last night I learned about Violet Club, the UK's "Megaton" (more like 400 KT) FISSION (not thermonuclear) bomb.
HFS guys, this thing was the worst idea ever.
I can't believe I didn't know about it, and now I'm SO curious about it....

It really is baffling how little attention has been paid to the British Library., even within the academic and research communities. More attention by far was paid to Trump's removal of the Librarian of Congress than a crippling cyberattack on our own National Library!
