My father-in-law is an hibakusha.  The dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima 
meant that his mission to blow himself up against the side of an 
American ship had to be canceled.  If you ask him what he thinks about 
nuclear weapons you may find his answer outside your expected mean and 
median.  It's added 65 years to his life, so far.
