Hartford, CT Lines: 19 The basic concern, as I understood it, was that the movie to be aired is unfair in its assumption that there is a continuation of life after a nuclear attack(war). To answer your question, I believe(my opinion) that conservatives are concerned that some people will come to believe, after viewing the movie, that there is not as great a need as we thought to freeze the nuclear build-up, while liberals may feel that this is to the advantage of the nuclear program. To quote a t-shirt I saw in Virginia last year, "Once you've seen one nuclear war, you've seen them all." ( No offense to those all for nuclear war, melting, radioactivity) Terry O'Coin
