-Caveat Lector-
To me it seems that the possibility of a nuke fired at the US from Russia
would not cause an exodus from Russia to here. That doesn't make sense to
me. Why would the diplomats want to come back if they think that there might
be accidental firings??

: Although American experts say the chances are "virtually nil" that the
Year

missile
: at a United States target, the exodus of American diplomats from Russia
and
: three other former Soviet republics is an indication that many of them
think
: otherwise.
:
:
: Those of us who live in New York, a primary Russian target, should wonder
: why, instead of monitoring each other, the United States and Russia don't
: shut off their mutually assured destruction targeting mechanisms for the
: first week of 2000 so that no accidental launching can possibly take
place.
