       @TidalFlats @mwyman Yup! One time it yields 10 kilo tons, next time 100 :blobcatgiggle:

       @stux Old joke: Marines developed a nuclear hand grenade capable of destroying everything within 100 yards. Problem is that the average marine can only throw it 50 yards.

       @stux @mwyman My good friend and I have a category we call "You First" (generated when we saw a display in the National Air and Space Museum on an experimental backpack personal helicopter, once considered for parachute replacement and possibly for Army forward observers).https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backpack_helicopterThe "Davy Crockett" fits comfortably into that category.

       @stux @TidalFlats “variable yield”. It’s a “feature”
