between the US and Russia, will Seoul get nuked?
Please advise. I am trying to decide whether to sign on for another year or go elsewhere.
What country would you recommend far from a nuclear target where they need English teachers?

I have good news for you. If a full nuclear confrontation between the US and Russia was to start, lets call it the WW3, it does not matter where you live and work. We, as a species, would simply die sooner or later. Some of us would be able to survive a bit longer, but majority of people would die of hunger, riots and looting, radiation, lack of electricity and the services it makes possible etc.
Seoul is as good place to live as any other. Besides, if Seoul was to be nuked, your death would be fast. If you were to be lucky, you would not even notice it. This is the way I personally would like to go. But if you move to some insignificant place in the middle of nowhere, you might survive the war only to perish slowly in the aftermath.
Have a nice day!
PS. If you do not want to risk a long time survival and suffering, look for employment near Yongsan/any US military base with any strategic value. |

| There are a lot of immigrants in and around Bellvue, Nebraska (the Offut area) and around Colorado Springs, Colorado--particularly Cheyenne Mountain. Try those places. |

I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the
atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.

Bombs have gotten significantly more powerful since Einstein's day.

From the article:
| Quote: |
The giant fireball reached from ground-level to about 34,000 feet into the air, violently releasing 3800 times more explosive energy than the Hiroshima bomb� equivalent to fifty million metric tons of TNT. One hundred kilometers from ground zero the heat would have inflicted third degree burns. Atmospheric focusing produced areas of destruction hundreds of kilometers from ground zero, including wooden structures which were completely destroyed, and some shattered windows in Finland. The explosion's atmospheric shockwave traveled around the Earth three times before it dissipated.

Yeah right. Mighty Lord Satan is going to nuke Jesus too. You have zero chance of survival by his side. Satan is the only answer. |

WW3 has already started? You'd better let CNN in on this.
What a well thought out, articulate, informative and highly intelligent comment on your part.
p.s. reread the Pslams regarding this 'hellhole', ingrate.
