    I think Putin and his military leaders are aware of the existence of wind. So I’m guessing they won’t be doing that.

      Seems that way. The whole point of nuclear threats is the “To preserve our way of life I’m willing to make this sacrifice.” attitude. That’s what being a Cold War kid taught me. Can’t do that if you’re afraid of the wind.

      Putin’s bluff has been called many times by now and his cards have been found wanting.
