Four days ago I ceased to exist

Think it over what you just said
think it over in your pretty little head
are you sure that I'm not the one
is your love real or only fun
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and let me know
think it over but don't be slow
just remember all birds and bees
go by twos through life's mysteries
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and think of me
think it over and you will see
a happy day when you and I
think as one and kiss the blues goodbye
you think it over - yes, think it over
a lonely heart grows cold and old

Nearly 40 years after the concept of finite deterrence was popularized
by the Johnson administration, nuclear Mutual Assured Destruction
(MAD) thinking appears to be in decline. The United States has rejected
the notion that threatening population centers with nuclear attacks is a
legitimate way to assure deterrence. Most recently, it withdrew from the
Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, an agreement based on MAD. American
opposition to MAD also is reflected in the Bush administration’s desire to
develop smaller, more accurate nuclear weapons that would reduce the
number of innocent civilians killed in a nuclear strike.

In 1951, Jonas Salk, MD, and his team developed a method to cultivate polio virus in monkey kidney tissue in order to be able to produce large amounts of the vaccine. On Apr. 12, 1955 the results of the Salk vaccine trials showed the vaccine was 80-90% effective and the US government licensed the IPV (inactivated polio vaccine) vaccine the same day. The vaccination program was suspended on May 8, 1955 to investigate paralysis resulting from the vaccine injection; changes to the production method were made and vaccination resumed on May 27, 1955.
