    I remember reading this as a young man, and thinking even then that it was a very bad idea. I lived through the 1970’s ice age scare, but sadly did not buy the t-shirt. Still have my red, white and blue bicentennial deerskin ski gloves, with matching scarf and hat! I was quite a site in the Alps back then, like Old Glory on bad acid.

    I remember that 1975 Peter Gwynne story myself.

    In 1975 I had no suspicion that pseudo-climatology and pseudo-cosmology were linked by fear and loathing that humans might use forbidden knowledge of the energy source that vaporized Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 9 Aug 1945 to destroy life on Earth.
