Thanks Mike. This year, I did forget.
August 6, 1945: Hiroshima.
August 9, 1945: Nagasaki.
Two dates we should never, ever forget
for the reason Mike explains.

The other dates with a little help from the internet:
July 16, 1945: Almagordo, New Mexico - first A-bomb test.
1946 - 1958: Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands - 23 atmospheric A-bomb and
H-bomb tests.

- Steve
