Every nation denied A-Bomb by America should fall on its knees and thank God (and Washington DC)

The biggest single attraction of the A Bomb for America, circa 1945, was how expensive it was.

So expensive that only America could seem to afford it.

A de facto economic atomic monopoly.

Only America couldn't afford it, could it ?

Scarce British penicillin , 1943 -1944 -1945 : a CHOICE or a failure ?

Churchill's electoral defeat in July 1945 was ensured in late September 1942.

To prove that it really did reject the soon to be released Beveridge Report, the British (Conservative Party-dominated) government's all-powerful Ministry of Supply (MOS), together with representatives of the academic-military-civil servant medical science establishment, met on that date to set the British Commonwealth's production levels for penicillin for the remainder of the war.

(And first let us remind ourselves, because today's English academics - save only David Edgerton  - never do , that the civilian and military populations of the 1940s British Commonwealth cum Empire were larger than those of America.)

The annual spirited Telethon against Stone Heart disease

An annual telethon (put on by spirits from the past) to prevent the re-occurrence of Stone Heart disease ???!

Is it a fund-raising telethon for research on the calcified (stone) formations on heart valves that leads to often-fatal SBE  endocarditis?

Or  a telethon to prevent the return of post-modern Humanity to being mean and selfish and stone hearted , ie 'modern' ?

Or both ......
