== Pumpkin Bomb? == 

 Ok, so the article claims that this 'pumpkin bomb' weapon has the same ballistics as a nuke.  I have a difficult time accepting this.  Nukes of this era are measured in kilotons, later in megatons, meaning (as I understand it) comparable to a detonation of that many thousands of tons of TNT.  So we're talking about a device producing an explosion equivalent to, what, 13 thousand tons of TNT?  I don't care what kind of high explosive this weapon was using; unless it was nuclear, there's no chance it could have produced a multi-kiloton yield.  I call bullshit.
