I'm not comfortable with nukes, period. But the genie is out of the bottle.
I think that if there were some sort of treaty between *all* countries that
have nukes that vowed they would not use nukes unless their borders were
attacked first, I'd be a little more comfortable.
And part of the treaty would be that if it were broken by one country, all
the rest would each lob 1 warhead at that capital. (If you use a nuke
without sufficient provocation, you get nuked. Poetic justice.)
But that's probably a bit much.
