I should bloody well hope so; it's a loving bomb. But again, it doesn't change a damn thing whether or not it's more dangerous to preserve it; history is worth preserving no matter how prolific nor how dangerous it is

only made a crater this big

Where I used to live we had Ft. Monroe, well they'd fire onto this piece of beach near where me and my father would go fishing. They have blocked off an entire beach due to the ordinance on the beach.
