{"quotes":[{"text":"One of my friends compared me to Bruce Banner, due to my work with radiation and human health. So I looked up Bruce Banner and this is what I found: Banner, a physicist, is sarcastic and seemingly very self-assured when he first appears in Incredible Hulk #1, but is also emotionally withdrawn in most fashions...Banner is considered one of the greatest scientific minds on Earth, possessing 'a mind so brilliant it cannot be measured on any known intelligence test.' He holds expertise in biology, chemistry, engineering, physiology, and nuclear physics.","author":"Steven Magee","tags":["banner","biology","bruce","chemistry","engineering","health","hulk","human","incredible","nuclear","physics","physiology","radiation","radiation-effects"],"id":2747,"author_id":"Steven+Magee"},{"text":"Science, the agent that once promised to eradicate the supernatural, had, through the nuclear threat, resurrected it.

The sun hit the orange puddles, the overgrown, soft, green grass on her lawn, and it beamed down through the orange steel mill smog, sending otherworldly, bizarre shadows across the concrete sidewalk.","author":"Rebecca McNutt","tags":["canada","dream","girl","nuclear","pollution","rainbow","science","smog","storm","surreal","teenager"],"id":35749,"author_id":"Rebecca+McNutt"},{"text":"When the rods were pushed back in and the clicking had died down, we suddenly experiences a let-down feeling, for all of us understood the language of the counter. Even though we had anticipated the success of the experiment, its accomplishment had a deep impact on us. For some time we had known that we were about to unlock a giant; still we could not escape an eerie feeling when we had actually done it. We felt as, I presume, everyone feels who has done something that he knowns will have very far-reaching consequences which he cannot foresee.","author":"Eugene Wigner","tags":["history","nuclear","nuclear-bomb","nuclear-reactor-technology","science"],"id":36732,"author_id":"Eugene+Wigner"},{"text":"In nuclear war all men are cremated equal.","author":"Dexter Gordon","tags":["men","equal","nuclear "],"id":91713,"author_id":"Dexter+Gordon"},{"text":"Very few people in the USA realize that a nuclear war was waged with nature in the southwest by their own military.","author":"Steven Magee","tags":["few","military","military-history","military-industrial-complex","military-philosophy","military","military-theory","nature","nuclear","own","people","realize","southwest","their","usa","very","waged","war"],"id":96692,"author_id":"Steven+Magee"},{"text":"Is the music broke, Mommy?","author":"Edward M.
