[ RadSafe ] deactivated nukes

[Perle, Sandy]

Mike, and now we have an issue, Virus infects U.S. military drones. Guess
this has been going on for about 2 weeks and every time the wipe the virus
off the systems, it reappears. Interesting if the US Military can't keep a
virus from their systems, can you imagine the damage that can be done to
the world's economy if larger targets are affected!

Regards,

Sandy
