OK, well who else should know?  Not all work on Nuclear weapons design.
And even among those who do there is considerable disagreement over
many issues.  But They all pretty much agree on a few low level 
conclusions.  If they didnt, they'd look like fools. It's easy to see
when to look at the numbers and know what the numbers mean.  We dont
have a lot of fools in the business.  We do have quite a few on the
net, where disproval is a bit harder.  You think it funny if someone
told you an 8080 did 80 megaflops.  I feel the same way when I hear
this 'blow up the world X times' nonsense.
